Using Iterative Comparison Operations

An iterative comparison operation is a type of operation that uses multiple iterations to get a Boolean result. It does these iterations on the literal values or expressions that the Values property contains, or on child business component records.

The following configurations can result in different iterative behavior:

  • You define multiple values in the Values property.

  • Multiple records of the child business component exist in the current workset. A child business component is a business component that is not the primary business component in the current business object that the Workflow Process references. If you set the Compare To option to Business Component or to Expression, and if you define the Object field as the name of a child business component, then Siebel CRM uses this child business component in the comparison. If Siebel CRM returned multiple records the last time it processed records in the child business component, then multiple records can exist in the current workset of the child business component.
