How do I select a checkbox in a table through invoke business process?
The help files only discuss single-line checkbox fields.
To separate multiple choices, you need to use comma instead of semicolon. Also note that the value should match checkbox value, not choice.
The token value should be like:
Payroll,Full
Payroll,Full
Hi Mason,
You can create a token with multiple values in Workflow and set the token as Forms variable value in "Invoke Business Process" activity.
Could you give detail to accomplish this? I followed your instructions but did not get the results I needed.
The value I am setting in the multi-value token is below.
Payroll;Full
Payroll;Full
Then I am assigning the token to the Forms Variable.

I am retrieving the values from a submitted form using the Retrieve Business Process activity. The value is including semi-colons.
Just a recommendation, please update the activity so it returns the values with commas instead of semi-colons.
Checkbox form fields generate a multi-value token in Workflow. If you get a semi-colon delimited list instead, please open a support case so we can look into it.

Does the order that the values are in matter? Can they be in a different order than how they are listed in the checkbox field?
I just did some testing. It appears that the order does not matter. I am using a token that creates this variable to use:
meals,carRent,travServ,lodge,mile,reg
If I paste this in to the Invoke BP activity it works fine, so the issue is with my token. Any thoughts?
Disregard, I had the token as a multi value field. I had to be single value to work.
Thanks
Hi Chris,
The order does not matter.
Which type of checkbox field are you trying to assign value to, field inside or outside of table? If it's outside of table, you need to use a single value token which contains choices separated by comma.
Yes, outside a table. Thanks for the info as usual!
