5. If you add more rows and delete one, there will be additional brackets displayed in the pattern. For example if there are 4 rows added and you delete the 3rd row, the criteria pattern will be as ( ( ( ( 1 and 2 ) ) ) or 3 ). If the first row is deleted then it will be shown as ( ( ( ( 1 ) ) ) or 2 ). However, on saving the criteria, it will change as ( 1 or 2 ).

8. If the number of rows does not match numbers given in the pattern, you will receive an error message. This will also occur if there are any missed numbers in the specified pattern.
   
9. In case the final brackets are missing, there will be a difference in the Criteria Pattern when it is edited and when it is viewed.
