Product Update

Decision Rules

We’re excited to announce our new Decision Rules feature, which simplifies complex and lengthy rule writing. The feature enables users to utilize a new Decision Rules step in Effectiv’s workflow builder to create multiple conditions that are executed in sequence using an intuitive rule creation process. Users can sequence the conditions and rules, using drag-and-drop functionality to move them to the appropriate order.

The Decision Rules feature will allow users to create more powerful and organized rulesets, which will be especially helpful in rule-heavy use cases like transaction monitoring.
