# Conditions

Conditions are based on Boolean logic; if a condition is met then an email for approval will be sent to the required approver.

The Basic commands for conditions are:

* equal to(=): Checks if two values are exactly the same.
* not equal to(!=): Determines if two values are different from each other
* greater than(>): Compares if one value is larger than another
* less than(<): Compares if one value is smaller than another
* greater than equal to(>=): Checks if one value is either larger than or equal to another
* less than equal to (<=): Determines if one value is either smaller than or equal to another
* contains: Checks, if a certain value or substring is present within a larger value or string.
* does not contain: Determines if a certain value or substring is not present within a larger value or string

### The And/Or Operator

AND: Evaluates as true only if all the conditions being compared are true.&#x20;

OR: Evaluates as true if at least one of the conditions being compared is true.
