Rule Tester:
It is important to verify the validity of the rules created. By running the Rule Tester for the various services or inventory items you sell, the rule tester will provide a list of each rule applied or if a conflict exist between rules created, Filopto will report in the tester that the selected rule is in conflict. It is extremely important that you test the rules you create for accuracy. If you instruct Filopto via a rule to do the wrong action, it will execute this incorrect rule and cause your claim to be inaccurate.
