Order of Boolean Conditions

The order of Boolean conditions within an all or any expression does not affect the logical value of the result.

However, at runtime, processing of the boolean conditions halts as soon as a result is confirmed; as such, you should consider ordering the Boolean conditions so that the all or any expression tends to obtain its result as quickly as possible.

This means:

• for all expressions, placing boolean conditions which are likely to evaluate to false earlier in the list; and
• for any expressions, placing boolean conditions which are likely to evaluate to true earlier in the list.

You can use the CER Editor to change the order of the Boolean rule elements within the Any rule element. For example, arrange all Boolean rule elements with true value first.
