How to Multiply Inside a Flow

Multiply Problem.png

Hi Everyone!

 

I am looking at adding multiple of 1 item inside my flow.

My issue is that I am unsure on how to set up the flow to do such a task.

 

The basics of what I'm trying to do is;

When you go to inventory an item you scan a QR label(Hardware Input) that logs the Hardware platform which then triggers different sub flows based on the Label names. It then prompts you to manually type in a quantity. After you type in the quantity it then goes to the specific sub flow and starts running said sub flow in tangent with my Excel spreadsheet.

 

My main issue is that there are certain inventory items we have that have multiple of the same item inside them.

My question is...

How do you set up a flow to then take the manually inputted number(User Input) and then double it for said certain items.

 

My example of an item that gets x2 pieces in it is shown in the picture above!

We are looking at line 35 and line 38 where the math problem is going to be.

 

I am assuming I am thinking about this too much and the solution is most likely straight forward! I just need some guidance!

I appreciate all and any help!

 

Thanks,

RTAProduction 🙂
