Greater than or equal (single-valued fields)
Contains at least one element greater than or equal to (multi-valued fields)
<

The following topics describe how to create specific types of conditions:
To create a condition involving field values
To create a condition involving user groups
To create a condition involving type properties
* 
All types of conditions are not necessarily available for all types of rules. For example, conditions involving user groups only pertains to rules for field editability and relevance. They do not apply to other types of rules, such as those for triggers and constraints.
To create a condition involving field values
To create a condition involving user groups
To create a condition involving type properties
To create a pre-condition associated with a document
To replace an existing condition with a new one
