Pattern Matching Scenarios

Various pattern matching scenarios can be created in order to match the users to their entitlements.

This feature is explained using an example. Assume a user has the following attributes:

FirstName="John"

LastName="Cook"

The following pattern-matching scenarios can be created:

Rule	Result	Description
`$account.FirstName$account.LastName`	`"JohnCook"`	Consolidates FirstName and LastName without any space or special characters in between
`$account.FirstName(-10)`	`"John "`	Sets the text space to 10, leaves space after the FirstName
`$account.FirstName(+10)`	`" John"`	Sets the text space to 10, leaves space before the `FirstName`
`$account.FirstName(/_/+10)`	`"______John"`	Sets the text space to 10 and prints an underscore before the `FirstName`.
`$account.FirstName(/_/-10)`	`"John______"`	Sets the text space to 10 and prints an underscore after the `FirstName`.
`$account.FirstName(3)`	`"John"`	Sets the minimum number of characters to `3`.
`$account.FirstName(+5)`	`" John"`	Sets the text space to `5` and prints blank space before the `FirstName`.
`$account.FirstName(+2.3)`	`"ohn"`	Deletes all characters after the third one from right side of the `FirstName`.
`$account.FirstName(-2.3)`	`"Joh"`	Deletes all characters after the third one from the left side of the `FirstName`.
`$account.FirstName(-1.1)`	`"J"`	Deletes all characters after the first one from the left side of the `FirstName`.
`$account.FirstName(-1.1)$account.LastName`	`"JCook"`	Deletes all characters after the first one from the left side of the `FirstName` and inserts `LastName`.
`$account.FirstName(-1.1)_$account.LastName`	`"J_Cook"`	Deletes all characters after the first one from the left side of the `FirstName` and inserts an underscore and `LastName`.

Note -

The first number inside the parentheses indicates the minimum number of characters.

The number after the period is used to truncate the string starting from that position.
