Field Help for Rule Conditions and Actions

Field Name	Field Value	Description
Logic		Lists conditions or actions that are part of the business rules
	if	Condition. Must be followed by `then`, `and`, or `or` row. Each `if` block must end with `endif` row.
	and	Condition
	or	Condition
	then
	endif
	set	Predefined action. Assigns value of selected attribute in Attribute column.
	clearField	Predefined action. Clears value in Attribute column.
	changeOwner	Predefined action. Changes collaborative owner for business document.
	addUserCollaborator	Predefined action. Adds user as collaborator with specified collaborator role.
	addGroupCollaborator	Predefined action. Adds group as collaborator with specified collaborator role.

	changePhase	Predefined action. Changes business document to next sequential phase.
	generateError	Predefined action. Throws application exception with error message on the attribute selected in Attribute column.
	(custom actions)	The business rule designer loads any available custom action names (by application) at run time to values in Logic column.
Attribute		Attribute values are dependent on the specified Logic. If the value for Logic is a condition, the attribute values listed here are direct attributes of the business object for which the rule is defined. If the value for Logic is an action, the attribute can be the parameter value for the action. If there is no parameter for this action, the value is empty. The parameter can be in the same row as the specific logic for a predefined action. For custom actions, each parameter of the custom action occupies a separate row from the row for the selected logic.
Operator		Operator values are dependent on the specified Logic and Attribute. If the value for Logic is an action, operator is empty. If the value for Logic is a condition, the operator values listed here depend on the data type of the value in Attribute.
	contains
	equals
	not equals
	is empty
	has value
Value		This is the value for the specified Attribute. If the value of Logic is a condition or has the `set` action, then the value here is based on the data type of the Attribute value. If the value of Logic is a `clearField` action, the value here is empty. If the value of Operator is `is empty` or `has value`, this Value column is empty.
