String Expression

String Expression

The String Expression is used in the conditional part of a rule (see Rule Condition) to check whether an attribute starts with (or ends with or contains) the specified text, for example:

-          Account.Name STARTSWITH 'John'  

-          Account.Name ENDSWITH 'Smith'  

-          Account.Name CONTAINS 'it'  

  NOTE:  Typically the String Expression checks attributes of the Plain Text type. However, it can also be used to check attributes of other types, for example:

Account.Balance STARTSWITH '10'
