I have 3 fields in a document library:  IDValue1, IDValue2 & IDMatch

I want a workflow to lookup both the fields IDValue1 and IDValue2 and compare them.  If they match, I want to then set the field value for IDMatch to be "Yes".  If they do not match, IDMatch gets set to "No".

 

I tried using a Calculated column using the formula: =EXACT(AIDValue1],eIDValue2]), that gives me a Yes or No but I can't seem to use the calculated field in the workflow.  It doesn't look it up.

@Jake could you perhaps have a look at this please?


hi @jambou 



 



If you are using a Nintex form for the library then you can use the form to do this and store the boolean in a calculated value, then store that to a list column.



 



If you are just talking entirely from workflow its actually better if you just use a calculated field on the Sharepoint list with the formula like below then you can use that field in the workflow if you need, you also don't even need a workflow to do the comparison. 



 



=IF(OR(ISBLANK([IDValue1]),ISBLANK([IDValue2])),"",IF([IDValue1]=[IDValue2],"Yes","No"))



 





 



 







 



 



 


Just to add if you are still having issues please reach out to me here and I will try set up a call.
