OR
An OR statement returns TRUE if at least one of the conditions is TRUE and returns FALSE when all the conditions evaluate to FALSE.
Syntax
OR(logical_test1, ...logical_test2?)
Arguments
Arguments | Datatype | Descriptions |
---|---|---|
logical_test1 | Node reference,Number | The first condition to be evaluated. This is a required argument. |
logical_test2? | Node reference,Number | The additional conditions to be evaluated. These are optional arguments. |
Return Value
Either True or False values that are given in the arguments.
Remarks
OR function accepts multiple conditions.
Example
Consider the below scenario in which if the Sales Quantity is greater than 50 or the usage Customer Ranking is 1, the price should be $20 else $25.
Periods | Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | May | Jun |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Sales Quantity | 50 | 55 | 45 | 65 | 25 | 31 |
Customer Ranking | 1 | 1 | 2 | 2 | 1 | 2 |
To achieve this, the following formula should be written in the [Price] node:
IF
(
OR
(
[Sales Quantity]
>50,
[Customer Ranking]
==1),20,25)
Result
Parameter | Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | May | Jun |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Price | 20 | 20 | 25 | 20 | 20 | 25 |
As you can see from the above table, the result will be 20 even if one of the conditions is true and it will be 25 only when both of the conditions are false. In Feb, both of the conditions are True & in Jan, Apr and May one of the conditions is true. So the result is 20. But in Mar both the conditions are false, so the result is 25.
