Feature Request: Enhanced Field Rule Logic

Forms

Updated January 6, 2023

asked on May 19, 2020

Would there be any way to configure field rules to use a bit more complex logic? Instead of only AND and OR options ("when all" = AND, "when any" = OR), is there a way to combine the two? I'm looking to create a rule that'll show a set of fields when A or B is selected AND the answer to a different question is yes.

At the same time, could you add an enable button for a rule as in the lookup tab. Be nice to be able to quickly disable a rule for troubleshooting purposes, etc.

I agree that that would be quite helpful to add.

For a workaround for your issue, you could create an additional single-line field and use the Calculations section to check whether A or B is selected, and then use that field in the field rules with the Yes.

=OR(Variable="A", Variable="B")
