Setting up a Boolean control

You can set up a Boolean control on an external system when you need a control that specifies a value of true or false. You also can add specific organization-level and site-level values to a Boolean control. A publish channel or an enterprise service can use this Boolean control in its processing rule evaluations. The true or false value that you assign to the control in the external system determines whether an enterprise service or a publish channel applies a processing rule.

Before you begin

The boolean value that you assign to a control must already exist in the control definition in the Publish Channels or Enterprise Services application. If that definition points to a domain, any organization-level or site-level values that you assign must exist in that domain.
