Business Process Flows - Logic for Option Set Values

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 721

Is there a way to specify which value in an option set must be selected for a business process flow to be able to progress to the next stage?

For example, if you have an option set with following values:

  • A
  • B
  • C

and the BPF can only move to the next stage if the option chosen is C. If the user chooses A or B, the BPF can not progress.

I was thinking the only way to do this would be to create an additional hidden field that is set to mandatory or not mandatory depending on the value selected in the option set so that the BPF cannot progress but that would mean the record can not be saved if there is a mandatory field that is blank.

    Hi,

    you can achieve it via

    1. Extra two options or option set

    -  set this field to complete, once your criteria is met and vice versa.

    2. Plugin

    -  trigger the plugin when business process flow is move to next stage. throw some meaningful error message to user if the criteria is not met .

    Thanks Fun Wei Jie, I used option 1 with a hidden field.
