Demand Tools' Modify section doesn't provide an explicit OR condition within a single group

Hi,

I want to apply this simple logic in the Modify section (1 AND 2 AND 3) AND (4 OR 5) but Demand Tools' Modify section typically doesn't provide an explicit OR condition within a single group. Any idea how to acieve this? Any help is much appreciated.

Regards,

Sarannya

Hey @Sarannya - Thanks for reaching out. Good question, and an often overlooked feature! Within conditioning, you'll want to setup the first three conditions, those being your AND conditions. When you go to setup the fourth, you'll want to select the OR box in the bottom left of the record selection condtion setup page. Ultimately, add the 5th condition to pair it with the fourth.

Hey @Pugs_Validity , thanks for the quick reply. I tried that too. But won't it be calculated as (1 AND 2 AND 3) OR (4 AND 5) ? I am not getting the right results out of this.

@Sarannya - My apologies, I misread your original request. Yes, you'll want to write it as conditions 1 AND 2 AND 3 AND 4 OR 1 AND 2 AND 3 AND 5. Make sense?
