Rule Settings#

In the Rule Settings tab you can:

  • Enter a rule name for admin reference.
  • Select the attribute(s) that should be compared with submitted fraud suspicion records when a new order is placed.
  • Define the permitted amount of 'strikes' or matching fraud suspicion records required to blacklist a new order. If a match is found and the permitted amount of strikes is exceeded, the order will be automatically blacklisted and blocked for shipping.
  • Enable the rule to execute it each time a new order is submitted.
