Working with Advanced Tier Rules
Advanced Tier Rules are conceptually similar to Basic Tier Rules, in that they define conditions for a Member to attain a specific Tier. However, Advanced Tier Rules allow you to define more complex criteria than is possible in a Basic Tier Rule, such as an expiration date, or using conditional logic to limit the Members to which the Advanced Tier Rule applies.
Advanced Tier Rules are often used for temporary conditions, such as a special offer to allow Members to advance more quickly to the next Tier. Each Advanced Tier Rule has its own publish status and Effectivity Period, which gives you full control over when, and for how long, Advanced Tier Rules are considered live within the platform.
Advanced Tier Rules are not part of the Tier Table. If a Member meets the conditions in an Advanced Tier Rule, they will be assigned the Tier designated within the Advanced Tier Rule, even if they don't meet the Basic Tier Rules for that Tier. If a Member meets the conditions of both a Basic Tier Rule and an Advanced Tier Rule, the Advanced Tier Rule takes precedence.
If the Advanced Tier Rule has an expiration date, then once it expires, Members will be placed in the correct Tier based on the Basic Tier Rules. For example, let's say you have a temporary Advanced Tier Rule that advances Members from the Silver Tier into the Gold Tier for a set duration. When that Advanced Tier Rule expires, the Members who had been advanced would drop back to the Silver Tier.
