When presenting steps that aren't required for the user to complete the procedure, use one of the following conventions based on context, conciseness, and relevance to the task.

Conditional If Phrase

Use a conditional if phrase to specify the conditions that make the step relevant. For example:

• If you're editing picklist values, select the name of the picklist field.
• If you need to filter on the name for a person account, use the First Name or Last Name fields instead.
• If needed, you can force the expiration of passwords for all users.

Note for Optional Steps

Use a note for information that isn't critical for most users. The note can appear after a step or at the end of the procedure, depending on relevance and the number of notes already in the topic. It can include more than one optional step, but consider using a separate Tip section for multiple entries.
