Application DesignAdvanced Block: Conditional True/False

In a business rule designed in the Configurator, you can add a Conditional True/False component block to run different component blocks depending on whether the value of a print job property or a data map entry is equivalent to a specified value.

Tip: Before you can add a component block to a business rule, you must create a component set by specifying a trigger that controls when component blocks in the component set are run.
