There is an error at repeating section: Coercion Failed: Unable to transform the input lookup data into the requested type. 

 

For Error at Create item:     I checked and tried added all fields that I need eg Course end date, Course code, Project Code ( created new variable vDateCourseEndDate.  

However, error still showing, does not tell me exactly where is not correct.

Your error may not occur during item creation.

What are you logging right before you are creating the item?

Can you put a "commit pending changes" right before creation and rerun the workflow to see if it is actually trying to create the item?

@francis-swee ....did you try parsing your lookup data?

Hi,

Thank you for reply, 

Did not use parseLookup(NamedControl) this yet.  

This method is the direct resolution to the problem I faced?

@francis-swee ....I'm not sure since I don't know your configuration but the error says "Unable to transform the......" so the issue it seems is the value you're getting.
