Rule Operators

The available operators in the rules builder will vary depending on which field you have selected on the left-hand side of the operator. For example, if you have chosen Call Ref, the available operators include those for defining text fields (strings) such as ‘ends with’ and ‘contains’ while if you have chosen Call Priority, the available operators include = and <> (equal to and not equal to).
