A data Value is equal to

The "Data Value Comparison" condition checks whether the value of a selected field matches a specified value or formula. This is useful for validating that a field contains a particular value before triggering further actions. The comparison can be performed as a direct value match or, if enabled, as a date-only comparison.

Properties and Explanation

To use this condition, configure the following settings:

  • Field Name : Select one or more fields whose values will be compared.

  • Value: The value or formula to compare against the selected field(s). This can be a static value or a formula that is evaluated at runtime.

  • Check Date Only: If enabled, the comparison will only consider the date part of the field value (ignoring time).

Example Usage

Suppose you want to check if the "StartDate" field in a form is equal to today's date:

  • Set Field Name to "StartDate".

  • Set Value to a formula representing today's date (e.g., TODAY()).

  • Enable Check Date Only to ignore the time part of the date.

If the condition is true, the associated actions (such as showing a message or enabling a button) will be triggered.
