I have many forms in my workflow with the same repeating section “PRODUCTS”

  • Start form
  • DC Control Sheet
  • STEDI Approval
  • DC Closing Stage

I am able to copy data of my repeating section form the Start Form to my task form DC control Sheet. In that form, I have new fields in my repeating section. I want the content of these fields to also be copied to the other 2 task forms.

I am using the getCollectionItem in a rule. But it is not working, my fields stay blanks.

getCollectionItem([Workflow].[Assign a task to DC Control Sheet].[Assign a task to multiple users].[First response].[Form variables].[Products].[Condition After Inspection],[Products].[Current row].[Row number]-1)

I have attached my workflow. I someone can help me finding why my fields in my repeating section are blanks in the STEDI Approval and DC Closing Stage, it will be great.

Hi ​@poirisop,

I haven’t looked at your workflow, but instead, I have attached an example of what you are trying to do.
In this example the start form has a repeating section with one text field.
This is passed to a Task with a task form and a repeating section. 
The repeating section in the task form has an additional field.
This Repeating section is then passed to a second task, which has a task form with a repeating section that has the two fields.
Data is passed along with each task, including any rows that are added or deleted along the way.
I hope this helps.
