Order Manager
Version 8
Contents of this Topic: Show
The 5.803 Beta version of Monsoon Order Manager introduced the concept of a compound approval rule, which is referred to as an "approval rule group". An approval rule group allows you to test multiple fields for different criteria using an implied "AND", so that the action is applied only if ALL criteria are TRUE. A Rule Group MUST have at least one test defined before the system allows it to be saved.
Once a rule group is created, its Action cannot be modified but individual rules can be added or removed. If it is necessary to modify the action, delete the approval rule group and start over.
Individual rules in the group can only be deleted and re-added, they cannot be edited.
A Rule Group cannot be converted into a simple Approval Rule, even if it only has one test defined.
A existing simple Approval Rule cannot be converted into a Rule Group and a Rule Group cannot be converted into simple Approval Rules, even though it may only consist of a single approval test.
The following example demonstrates how to set up an approval rule group that cancels an order if it must be shipped outside of the US, AND the product total is greater than or equal to $500, AND the fraud score exceeds a value of "5", indicating the order has a 50% or greater chance of being fraudulent.
