Does anyone know if a field can populate a result of PASS/FAIL/COMPLIANT based on a GREATER THAN or LESS THAN number? Ex: below 10 - field should show text True or false

Yes, if the field containing the number is different than the field showing the text, then you'll need a calculation script in the field that is showing the text

Here's an example

event.value = (this.getField("A").value < 10)?"True":"False";

I'm doing something similar to OP, but I need to return a value of "True" or "False" if the field containing the number is less than or equal to a value in another field. How do I make this syntactically correct, where Y is the second field?

event.value = (this.getField("X").value <= Y)?"True":"False";
