Conditionals

Understanding conditional logic

Conditional logic is the “IF” part of Tallyfy automation rules. It lets your processes automatically make decisions based on specific information or events.

Simpler than flowcharts

Drawing complex flowcharts can get confusing quickly. Tallyfy uses simple conditional logic (like “IF X happens…”) which is easier for everyone to build, understand, and change, while still handling complex scenarios.

Benefits of conditional logic

• Automate decisions: Handle simple choices automatically.
• Ensure consistency: Same rules apply every time.
• Reduce manual work: Less need for human intervention on predictable decisions.
• Create adaptive workflows: Processes that change based on conditions.

Available condition types

Set up conditions in Tallyfy based on various factors:

• Answers given in form fields.
• Whether steps are completed, approved, or rejected.
• The role of the user involved.
• Time triggers (like deadlines passing).
• Other process information (metadata).
