Smartlist Builder Calculated Fields, CASE Query Help Please!

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 10

I am trying to change the output of a smartlist to match what a vendor requires, so instead of receiving Married, it needs to be '2', and male needs to be '1' etc. I figured this to be an easy project, but I seem to "break" the smartlist every time I write a case function to do this. here is an example:

CASE WHEN {Payroll Master:MARITAL STATUS} = 'SINGLE' THEN '1'
WHEN {Payroll Master:MARITAL STATUS} = 'MARRIED' THEN '2'
ELSE '1' END

or 

CASE WHEN {Payroll Master:MARITAL STATUS} = 'single' then '1'

--WHEN {Payroll Master:MARITAL STATUS} = 'married' THEN '2'

ELSE '2'

END

I set the field name and the field type is string 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi Karl,

    Thank you for using Microsoft Communities.

    Smartlist Builder was designed and supported by eOne solutions.  If you have not found an answer to your Smartlist Builder calculated field, I would suggest contacting eOne support.

    The solution is that because 'single' is from a drop down box instead of 'single', we just need to put 1 for this to work properly
