Defining condition between filters

Example 1

If there are items that meet the conditions of the filter A (for example, if there are 13 or more pieces of an item), the recommendation frame shows the items described in the filter A.

If there are no items that meet the filter A conditions, the recommendation frame shows the items that match the filter B (items of a different brand than the currently viewed item), if there are any.

If there are no items that meet the conditions of any of the filters (neither filter A nor B), then the recommendation frame is empty.

Example 2

The condition of both filters (A and B) must be met. It means the recommendation frame shows an item of which you have more than 12 pieces in stock and the brand of an item is different than the brand of the currently displayed item.

If there are no items that meet the filter conditions simultaneously, the recommendation frame is empty.

Example 3

Items must meet the conditions of two filters at the same time:

• the condition defined in the filter A (you must have 13 or more pieces of a specific item in your stock)
• the conditions defined either in B or C filters

Success:

• Items meet conditions of A and B filters.
• Items meet conditions of A and C filters.
• Items meet all conditions (then)

Failure:

• Items don’t meet the conditions of the filter A.
• Items don’t meet the conditions of both filters B and C. Result: The recommendation frame is empty
