To check if input is either this or that...

Posted on by SanjayGMusafir 73
Hi experts
 
I'm working on the following flow where I want PA to check for 3 (1,2,3) inputs. If the inputs are either of the three then it should ask another input.
 
But for some reason it doesn't ask for the second input and runs the remaining flow.
 
Please help
Thanks a lot 🙏
 
The current flow is - 
 
IF cFiles = $'''Open''' THEN
    Display.InputDialog Title: $'''Which bill is this...''' Message: $'''1 - BSES, 2 - DJB, 3 - IGL, 4 - MFs, 5 - Purchases, 6 - Stocks''' InputType: Display.InputType.SingleLine IsTopMost: False UserInput=> BType
    IF BType = $'''[1,2,3]''' THEN
        Display.InputDialog Title: $'''Is it a Receipt?''' Message: $'''y - Yes Receipt, n - No''' InputType: Display.InputType.SingleLine IsTopMost: False UserInput=> Receipt
        ON ERROR
        END
    END
END

    Hi,
     
    Assuming user will enter a single digit value.
     
    Pls update the if action as shown below and use 'Contains' operator instead of 'equals to':
     
     
    If this helps & solves your problem, please remember to like and accept my solution as it will help others in the future.
     
     
    Thanks,

    @ManishSolanki Thanks a lot. That works perfectly. I also experimented with 'contains' but I was doing other way round. And that is why it was generating error. Now when resolved by you, I have realized the mistake I was doing. 
    Thanks again.
