Issue
On a Task form, when using an equals() function in a rule or calculated value control, the function always returns False, regardless of the actual conditions. For example: equals(Decision,2) always returns False even when it’s True.
Resolution
Option 1
Ensure that the condition in the formula is enclosed in double quotation marks. For example: (Decision,”2”)
Option 2
Format the formula as follows: Decision =="2"
Additional Information
This is likely because the decision control is not returned as an Integer and it fails to compare in the equals function.
