Introduction to the Greater Than Check
The Greater Than check asserts that every value in a numeric field sits above a configured threshold, with the threshold itself accepted or rejected as you choose and an optional tolerance for rounding noise. Use it for floors that need more nuance than a plain minimum.
This section is the complete guide to the check. The Deep Dive covers the definition, properties, and full evaluation semantics, explains how anomalies are reported, walks through production examples, and collects best practices; the How-tos are step-by-step tutorials for creating, editing, and deleting a check; the API page documents the payload for programmatic use; and the FAQ answers the most frequent questions.
