I would like to implement the following field condition. Is this possible?

if ( fieldA = no AND (fieldB = no OR fieldC = no) )

0

  Here's a pretty good guide (and community comments) for conditional logic / branching:

  Sara's answer in the comments indicates that it goes in order until it hits the first "out". 

  
  I just tested several different ways and your example works if you "back into it" kind of like this:

  Field C = no
  And
  Field A = no
  Or
  Field B = no
  And
  Field A = no

  ...But being able to use parenthesis would be way easier.  There's an enhancement request already to add this for calculations:

  ...but it should also be available with field / screen conditions...

  Maybe consider making an enhancement request for that?

  Hi Beheerder,

  Nathan's suggestion should definitely work as a solution to what you're proposing. If it gets more complex, circle back with us here and we can revisit with another possible solution. 

  Thanks!
  Siobhan
