Samples

Consider the following Transaction object:

Customer
{
   CustomerId*
   CustomerName
   CustomerAddress
   CustomerEmail
   CustomerPhoto
}

To show or hide the Customer’s photo, depending on the customer's category, you have to define the following rules:

CustomerPhoto.Visible = 0 if CategoryId = 2;
CustomerPhoto.Visible = 1 if CategoryId <> 2;
