Hi,

i want to compare Filed value with Previous value.

I have a One Number Column ABC  in List, want to compare the Previous value, So i have create a New Column in List i.e. ABC_Previous, and Updating the ABC_Previous column value with ABC column in workflow at last, but the Issue is both Column value are comming same at very first time - 0. So the Run If condition are not satisfying at First Time (In side the Sun If we are Increasing the ABC column value by 1).

How we can satisfy the condition First Time.

 

Required a hekl on this.

 

Thanks

    Hi,
    Sounds like correct behavior to me.
    If there was never a previous thern both columns would equal the same.

    So If we have Condition like

    Run If (ABC Not Equal to ABC_Previous)

    {

     Some Actions

    }

     

    So Run If condition will never satisfy. and Some Actions will never execute.

     

    Note : We have migrate the Workflow from On-Prem 2013 to Online, above Run If Condition is in Start option with When Item Modifed (Beacuse in On-Prem we have a Previous Value Column available). So in online we have Move this condition in Workflow with Run If, because If we Add Condition in Start Option then Created By and Modified By user is SPAdmin.

    Also if in On-Prem we check ABC and ABC_Previous value are Same, So I am not sure how it is working in the On-Prem.
