'''Advanced Logic''' gives [[System Administrator]]s a higher level of control over the entire interface.
This feature allows control of the [[visibility ]] and/or access to [[Interfaces|interface]] elements such as buttons or tabs based on [[Administrator|administrator]] defined conditions.

==Location==
This feature is available in 3 places:
# '''Advanced Logic''' link on the [[Global Settings]] page (In the [[Business & System Configuration]] section) - to establish system-wide rules.# '''Advanced Logic''' link on the '''Settings''' Page within each [[Universal Tracking Application]]'s Setting's Page - for rules specific the to each UTA.# In the [[:Category:Personal Transactions|Transaction Types]] page section on [[Global Settings]] - for both ''People'' and ''Company'' Transaction Types
==Overview==
'''Object''': The object that is being controlled.<br />
'''Condition''': A logical statement that when true will make the object statement true, and when false will make the object statement false.
* If the '''Object''' says "Show Level 1 Save Button", if the statement in the '''Condition''' field is true the Save button will be shown.
* If the '''Object''' says "Hide Top Invoice Tab", if the statement in the '''Condition''' field is true the Invoice Tab will be hidden.
* If the '''Object''' says "Disable Delete Level 1 Contacts", if the statement in the '''Condition''' field is true, deleting Level 1 contacts will be disabled (meaning deletion won't be possible).
''For example, you can disable the '''Delete''' button when viewing '''Contacts''' at Level 1 for [[User]]s in a specific [[Role|role]] by using the '''Advanced Logic''' setting on the [[Global Settings]] page.

''In the above example, users who are in the role ID 1234 "Program Director" or role ID 1235 "Applicant" will be prevented from deleting contacts at Level 1{{l1}}.''
==Sample Conditional Statements==
* Using role name vs. role id
!@me.inRole(Organization Contact)@
rather than
'instr('@me.rolelist@',',10733,')=0'
* Not true for the Level 1 template with typeid ''12345''
'@opportunity.typeid@'<>'12345'
or
'@opportunity.typeid@'Not In('12345')
* True if the Level 1 status is 'Draft': '@opportunity.status@'='Draft' or '@opportunity.status@' In ('Draft') * True unless the Level 1 status is 'Draft' or 'Open': '@opportunity.status@' Not In ('Draft','Open') * True if the Level 1 statusid is 765 or 766 '@opportunity.statusid@' In ('765','766') * True if the Level 1 statusid is NOT 765 or 766 '@opportunity.statusid@' Not In ('765','766') * True when current user is in the role ''Program Director'' or ''Applicant'': @me.inRole(Program Director)@ OR @me.inRole(Applicant)@ * False when current user is in both the roles ''Program Director'' and ''Applicant'': !@me.inRole(Program Director)@ AND !@me.inRole(Applicant)@ * For a advanced logic based the '''startdate''' or '''enddate''' standard fields:::* Use ''''@fullstartdate@'''' rather than ''''@startdate@'''' and ''''@fullenddate@'''' rather than ''''@enddate@''''.:''This will format the stored date as yyyy-mm-dd so it can be compared using < and >.'' '@fullstartdate@' >= '2009-05-01' * True if today's date is after the Start Date: now()>'@fullstartdate@' * Never True 1=0 * Always True 1=1 '''<u>IMPORTANT</u>''' The syntax used will vary depending on which '''Object''' is being controlled.<br>For example, consider the '''Show Level 3 New Button'''. This button is shown when you are viewing a Level 2 record.* If you want to control the visibility of the Level 3 New button based on the status of the '''Level 2''' item you would use: '@statusid@' In ('765','766') * If you want to control the visibility of the Level 3 New button based on the status of the '''Level 1''' item you would use: '@opportunity.statusid@' In ('765','766') ==See Also== To see the options available for Advanced Logic settings, visit our [[Advanced Logic Options]] page. * [[Boolean Operators]]* [[UTA Settings Page]]* [[inRole]] [[Category:Global Settings]][[Category:UTA Settings]][[Category:Universal Tracking Application]][[Category:Advanced Logic]]
