How to create a Trigger Condition
The second part of the Dynamic model is creating Trigger Conditions:
- Select the "+ Add Condition" button.
- This will prompt the Text Formula Builder where mathematical operators can be used on the Variables you created previously. You can select the basic formula or the advanced formula:
The basic formula allows agents to create variable logic using dropdowns:
The advanced formula is free-form text:
- Let's take a look at the basic formula builder in detail:
All the Variables you previously created are available in the Variables dropdown:
The mathematical operands are available in the Operators dropdown:
Therefore a formula for basic comparative logic between Variables can be achieved:
- The logic can be converted to text using the Convert to Text button in the ... menu:
You can also use this menu to Delete any logic.
- Convert to Text also reveals the Advanced formula builder:
In text mode, more complicated logic can be created. For example, the Variables can be divided or multiplied:
- Multiple Triggers can be AND'ed or OR'ed together to create a more complicated Formula:
So in the example above, having two trigger conditions:
- A: TransactionVolumeLastWeek / 7 > TransactionVolumeLastMonth / 31
- B: TransactionVolumeLastMonth / 31 > TransactionVolumeLastYear / 365
Selecting And is similar to saying:
- A and B must be met to alert
Selecting Or is similar to saying:
- A or B must be met to alert
You can add as many additional Triggers as you want using the "+Add Condition" button.
