Cannot set column "Field" to be null

asked on February 29, 2016

I've recently changed one of my workflows to use the new Update Word Document feature and I've ran into an issue. When populating fields in a table on the document it throws an error when the date field doesn't have a value.

"Cannot set Column 'Date' to be null. Please use DBNull instead."

 

Below is a screen shot of the process in Workflow and it's coming from a table in forms.

 

Has anyone else ran into this issue before?

This is a known issue. Currently, Update Word Document can't handle columns with no data in table merges. We're looking into it.

Is this something I should open a support case for? Or just wait?

This is a bug (#140206). A fix will be available in the next version of Workflow. There is currently no workaround in Workflow 10.

Maybe you can add a blank space into it?

Is there any work around temporarily? For example if I were to put a field before the Date field in the table that would always have a value do you think that would fix it? It seems that if the Date is filled out, which is the first field, other fields can be blank.

Is there any update to the status on this?  Currently looking at a process and is not working because of this issue.

 

Thanks
