Hello,
I'm setting up a timesheet workflow. In the workflow I'd like it to test for whether a project manager is specified or not (is the project manager field blank). I can't get the workflow to cooperate though.
The condition looks like this:
And the project looks like this:
Yet the workflow evaluates like this:
It's meant to evaluate as "True". Is there a way to make that happen?

Hello both,
Thank you for your assistance.

Hello,
It doesn't seem to be string, not sure if it's RecId. Using 0 instead of blank seems to fix the issue. Will have to test it a bit more, but the test I'm running now works as intended.

Right click on that control and click on form name: FormName >> It will open the new dialog form >> In that form under Administration tab >> Under Form control type - See what the type is.
Refer to the below screenshot.
Thanks,

If there is value in Project manager field, is the condition returns True or False. Also, instead of blank try adding zero in the value (If its RecId, then blank will not work).
Hello Mohit,
I actually saw the replies in that link as well, which led me to where I am now. That link is also part of why I don't understand the issue.
How do I check for whether it returns a RecId or String?
@Girish, I'm pretty sure that the way the condition is now should be: If project manager field is blank = True

Hi, Your condition to check if value is empty looks fine. Is the Project Manager field returning String value or RecId.

Hi,
As per the condition you have added condition as if the project manager is empty then the condition will be evaluated to false.
If the project manager field is not empty, then the condition will be true.
Try assigning the project manager field to value and then submit the workflow.
Thanks,
Girish S.
