<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I had this

was working as expected in Dev and Q, but was giving unexpected results in

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>To overcome
this problem, I changed the possible values to 'T' and 'F'. Then I used

<tt>Thanks for input.</tt><br>
<br>
<tt>That BOR.attribute must be set to 'B' to start the WF in question. So, that
values 'was' B for Blocked. (VBUK-CMGST I think?)</tt><br>

<tt>zBUS2032.Overall CreditStatus = '' or zBUS2032.Overall CreditStatus = ' '</tt><br>
<tt>and call it a day.</tt><br>
<br>
<tt>But I hate trying to explain multiple trasnsports and then the question
comes up... why it works in dev not Q? We shouldn't be guessing why works in
one client and not another. </tt><br>
<br>
<tt>I will poke around in SDN and respond when I get back in ofc and in the
client in question. There is a reason, I will find it.</tt><br>

<tt>> Blanks are always a minefield, as it depends on what you're doing with
the</tt><br>
<tt>> container. Unused parameters will start out not existing in the
container, once a</tt><br>
<tt>> value is assigned (even if blank), they come to life. If a value is
not returned</tt><br>
<tt>> because it doesn't exist then it will be false, since ' '</tt><br>
<tt>> (space) is not the same as '' (nothing).</tt><br>
<tt>> Although when evaluating an attribute it should always work, so that's
a bit odd -</tt><br>
<tt>> does your attribute code put a space into the return value?</tt><br>
<tt>> </tt><br>
<tt>> If possible try to reverse logic to check for copnditions that don't
involve blank, or</tt><br>
<tt>> use 'EX' operator to check existence.</tt><br>
