Allow multiple rules to be applied
Hello,
We have a situation where users who are being given different signatures using different rules need an additional optional common signature. Due to rule execution stopping once a rule is met, this is not possible.
Would it be possible to get this feature or is there another way to do this without having to apply an optional signature to the individual users.
Thanks

Hi Sandeep -
The priority of the rules are top down.
When there is a overlap, the top rule got preference.
You can override rules with individual settings.
You can apply rules to fields or folders.
You might be able to use AND/OR or you can use another field or folder.
Please provide an example and I'll take a quick look.
Thanks

Hi Jesper,
We have a rule for each department in the company to assign a specific signature. We have Zero hour staff who work in different departments. What we would like is for the zero hour staff to be able to keep this signature but also add an optional signature if they are added to a another specific group in our AD.
So in my case, i'm part of a rule which maps to X signature through a rule, but i have then been added to a group/rule which should give me signature Z. Then there might be another staff member that maps to Y signature but also needs to be mapped to Signature Z. The only way i can see to do this is if we can apply multiple rules.
I've spoken to support and said that this would be the only way to do this and i need to do a feature request for this.
I'm happy to have a quick call with you if you would like me to show you on our system.
Thanks,
Sandeep

Hi Sandeep -
I quick summary after our meeting this week:
I'll leave your suggestion open so that others can like it and help make it a priority.
Thank you for your understanding.

Hi Jesper,
This doesn't help us, as we will have to add each of the users optional signatures individually. Is there a reason we can't have a checkbox to allow the rules to continue processing and is unchecked by default. By doing this, it would remove any complexity to other users. Not having this option makes it difficult for us to manage the users optional signatures.
Thanks,
Sandeep
Hi Sandeep -
We concluded that your suggestion will add complexity for the majority of clients.
You want the 1st rule default settings to be preserved when applying the OPTIONAL signatures via the 2nd rule.
We kept your suggestion open in case other clients like your idea.
When you create more AD groups, you can assign the OPTIONAL (and set the New/Reply) signatures to the group settings (you only do it individually if the settings are for one user).
Thanks

Hej Jesper. Jeg tror lidt denne er samme udfordring, som jeg står med - hvis jeg forstår det ret. Jeg har brug for at medarbejderne i enkelte afdelinger kan vælge mellem to forskellige signaturer - en med deres eget telefonnummer, og en med afdelingens fællesnummer. Men der er jo, som jeg ser det, kun én standard. Jeg ved, at jeg rammer samme udfordring andre steder, hvor det kan handle om forskellige signaturer alt efter om man skriver internt eller eksternt. Kan det ikke løses på en smart måde?
Mvh. Maya
