Conditional Statements

[tschallb]

Hi Folks,

We are trying to come up with a way to do an If / Then type statement in Act. For example if a field within a large database = A then Print Driving Instructions A. Act Support says that If / Then are not supported but I wonder what people have done with custom reports. Is this something that we would have to do in a reporting tool like Crystal?

Thanks for any suggestions!

Yes, you would need something like Crystal for this.

You might also have a look at these:

Both places will customise reports for you.

Thanks Mike. That's what I thought but I wanted to double check.
