Hi,
What I am not clear on is, do you have 3 separate fields and each one represents whether they create Task, Create Task 1 or Create Task 2?
Can they do all 3? or just 1 or just 2?
I have to guess here which I hate as there are no details and should be.
I would do this and let me explain.
- Let's assume you have 3 different fields in the Form and depending on if its blank or not, you create Task 1 , 2 and/or 3 as I assume they can do all 3.
Steps:
0. Click OFF the new UI, in the Top right corner. The slider, turn it off.
After you do that
You have a nice set or Parallel Actions you are super close as to what to do.
But what you are missing, is a Condition action to check if your property is blank or not, which tells you whether you SHOULD run your
create task and update task details actions.
you are super close
Option A or B for first step.
1a. Above each Create Task action, I want you to Add a Condition. Because we are going to run them all in parallel just like you do.
1b IF the + sign to add an action is NOT available above your current 3 Create Task XX actions, then instead, add the Condition between
the Create Task and Update Task Details of each parallel path you have
Either way, drag the Corresponding Create Task Action INTO the Yes side of the Condition
Then drag the Update Task details into the Yes side of each Condition, but below the Create Task.
Now that you have that we need to verify IF you should even do it
So we need each Condition to check if the respective Data is in the Answer. You said you have 3 possible tasks, so you must have 3
fields that they can fill in and depending on which they fill in you create the task.
So in each Condition do this
--Click in the left side box of the condition
--Click on the expression Tab of the popup window
-----type empty() with no spaces between ( and )
-----without closing the Popup window I want you to click on the Dynamics Property Tab
-------now click your mouse between the ( and )
----------lastly, scroll down and find the proper Form Answer, that tells if you should create the task or not
---------------Remember, that for the left side check if task 1 Form Answer is there, in the middle check if task 2 Form answer is there and then Task 3 form answer
in the middle for ALL of them select is equal to
in the right side for ALL of them, click in the box, select the Expression Tab again, and type true (just the word true) and click OK
Now you are done.
If they fill in Task 1 and 3 form answers, you only create 1 and 3 and 2 wont try etc
