How do you create a conditional clause that depends on multiple fields?

• A. Use a Rule with a compound condition (e.g., FieldA = X AND FieldB > 5) to include or exclude the clause.
• B. Use a simple IF statement with one field
• C. Use a fixed clause without conditions
• D. Use a separate contract for each outcome

Answer: (A)

Building conditional logic that depends on multiple fields uses a compound rule. In DocuSign CLM, rules evaluate field values and can combine criteria with logical operators like AND and OR. By writing a compound condition, you specify that a clause should be included only when several field criteria are met. For example, FieldA = X AND FieldB > 5 means the clause appears only if FieldA equals X and FieldB is greater than 5. If either condition isn’t true, the clause is not included (or a different path is taken). This approach directly captures multi-field dependencies in a single rule, which is why it’s the best fit. A simple IF statement with only one field would miss the second condition, so it can’t cover multi-field logic. A fixed clause without any conditions would always apply, ignoring field values. And using a separate contract for each outcome is a workaround, not a method to conditionally manage a clause within the same contract.
