Control whether limits apply by toggling the rule’s state.

After creation, rules can be switched between “Active” or “Draft” states.

  • Active: Order limits are applied

From basic condition settings to complex combinations, various patterns are supported:

  • Multiple conditions: Combine multiple conditions for advanced limits (Pro plan only)
  • Product scope: Apply limits only to specific products (Pro plan only)
