In workflow I need to be able to compare two dollar amounts, but it is okay if they are off by a few cents how can i match that condition in workflow?
I would use one of the conditional activities and token calculator to handle this.
Take one value as your pivot amount. Use the token calculator to add and subtract the amount of difference that is acceptable.
Then use the conditions to specify that all must be true.
Set the second value to be less than or equal to the highest calculated value
Set the second value to be greater than or equal to the lowest calculated value.
Inside the condition, when it's true, you should set a token value to be modified to true, this you can then use to tell if the value matched or not at a later point of your workflow
EDIT:
Alternatively, you can subtract one value from the other, then make sure the value is positive/greater than/equal to 0 and less than .02
The subtraction worked perfectly, and did exactly what I wanted. Thanks
If you foresee the chance that the amount of variation acceptable may change, you may want to create an "Assign Token Value" activity at the top of your workflow and use that as the value of difference you subtract and add, this way you can easily change that in the future to a new value.
