radio button validator in workflow

[Andy Keyworth]

I'm trying to make a simple text field and radio button pairing validate: we just have to know if, when there is something in the text field, the user has selected something from the radio button group. I've added two screen shots of what I'm doing. For the record, I know the query "as is" is incorrect, in that I've put the same query into two fields- I'm just trying to show what I've experimented with. The first field is a text field, the latter is a radio button group.

But when set like this, even if a radio button/option is selected, the validation fails, and the error message still displays. What is the criteria, if not null?

Hi Andy,

You should use "Boolean validator with math, date-time or text-string terms" with the following boolean expression:

%{17203} != null IMPLIES %{17900} != null

or if you prefer it you can also use

%{17203} = null OR %{17900} != null

Regards,

Fidel

Thank you- using this, I was able to come up with something slightly different, but it ended up suiting my needs.

If the behavior you need is somehow different, perhaps I can tell you a different boolean expression that fits exactly what you intend to do. Otherwise, you can close the issue.

Thank you again!
