# Conditionals
> Learn how to show, hide, or change report template wording based on province, study class, report type, and other report details.
Conditionals choose which template text appears based on the report’s data. They can omit wording that does not apply or select the right wording for a province, report type, study class, or property detail.
In the editor, conditionals appear as yellow blocks. The finished PDF contains only the wording selected for that report.
## Add a conditional
Place the cursor where the conditional wording should appear. Open the Reserve Sense menu from the R button in the editor toolbar and choose **Conditional**.
Reserve Sense inserts a yellow block; select it to open **Conditional Logic**.
Every conditional starts with an **If** branch. Choose a field, comparison, and value, then enter the wording that should appear when the condition is met. Add an **Else If** branch for another case or use **Else** as the fallback when no earlier branch matches.
This example writes “levies” for the selected provinces and “assessments” for every other province.
You do not need to add every type of branch. Use a single **If** when wording should appear only if one condition is met. Add **Else If** or **Else** only when another version of the wording is needed.
### How Reserve Sense selects a branch
Reserve Sense checks **If** first, then each **Else If** in order. **Else** is used only when none of the earlier branches match.
Conditions added within one branch are combined with AND, so every condition in that branch must be true. Use **Add condition** when several facts must match.
For example, a branch can require **Province** to be New Brunswick and **Units (all sections)** to be 11 or more. Use separate **Else If** branches when the alternatives need different wording.
You can place [variables](/report-templates/variables) inside any branch.
## Conditional field reference
The tables below list the fields available in **Conditional Logic**, grouped as they appear in the field menu. After selecting a field, choose a comparison and either a fixed value or an available dynamic value such as **Today’s Date**.
Available comparisons depend on the field:
* List fields support **is**, **is not**, **is one of**, and **is not one of**
* Number and date fields support **is**, **is not**, **greater than**, **greater than or equal to**, **less than**, and **less than or equal to**
* Yes/no fields support **is** and **is not**

If you do not prepare sectioned strata reports, you can skip this group. See [Sectioned reports](/report-templates/sectioned-reports) for how these fields select a property section.
## Choose a text or page condition
Use **Conditional** when you need to change wording within a page. Use [Show Page Condition](/report-templates/pages#show-page-condition) when the entire page, chapter, or appendix should appear or disappear.
