Conditional rules do allow transitions

community.sagecrm.com/.../09_exam_syllabus_technical_workflow_implementation.aspx

The purpose of the JavaScript statement in a conditional rule is to determine what action is taken.

So is it possible to limit a conditional rule by User Profile? I can limit a transitional rule to Users with Admin profile (10) with the following JavaScript statement:

{ valid=false; } if(CurrentUser.user_territoryprofile==10){ valid=true; }

I want to limit a conditional rule to Admin Users but since "The purpose of the JavaScript statement in a conditional rule is to determine what action is taken" it doesn't seem like this is possible. If anyone can suggest syntax to accomplish this I'd appreciate it.

The JavaScript of a Transition rule is used to display whether the rule is available through the user interface.

The internal system variable 'Valid' is by default 'true' and allows the workflow action button to be displayed. If 'Valid' is set to 'false' then the button is suppressed.

The JavaScript of a Conditional rule is used differently. The button is always going to be displayed. Instead a conditional rule allows different set of actions to be fired depending on whether 'Valid' is 'true' or 'false'.

In turn these different set of actions will allow a transition to two separate possible workflow states. Consider the image below.

In this example the conditional rule if 'false' will do something and keep the record in the same workflow state and if 'true' will allow the workflow to progress.
