If Attribute - Novell POLICY IN DESIGNER 3.5 - 09-18-2009 Manual

If Attribute

Performs a test on attribute values of the current object in either the current operation or the source
data store. It can be logically thought of as If Operation Attribute or If Source Attribute, because the
test is satisfied if the condition is met in the source data store or in the operation. The test performed
depends on the specified operator.
