I have a process flow that I am trying to have a branch that looks at whether the value is empty or if it has a value... I am trying to branch off the variable if the value is empty/null but it is not working.

I tried the following statements in my branch:

NEWLOC == ""
NEWLOC ==''
IsNull(NEWLOC)

However, none of these are working. The variable value appears to be empty. I have added the variable to an email to see what is in the variable and it shows no value. I put a letter in front and behind the variable and the value appears as empty.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I've done something similar in scripts.. Try assigning a new variable called XNEWLOC starting with "X" followed by NEWLOC then if XNEWLOC = "X" then NEWLOC is null

Branch and go

g'luck!

Try the opposite approach in the branch - test for not equal to blank or null.

NEWLOC != ""

I have used the this to find blank fields

Query6530_43.length==0

I use it in determining if a field has changed on a personnel action.

After the branch I assign a value of NO CHANGE to the variable.

So what I have is a variable called NEW POSITION if it has a value it gets assigned the new value if it is blank it gets assigned NO CHANGE and this variable is placed in the email message. hope that makes sense.
