Issue with label at combiner not update new label in On Exit trigger

I want the combiner to combine Type 1 and Type 2 box and then assign new label of Type = Type 5 and ItemName = Product 5.

I used On Exit trigger on the combiner but it doesn't update the box's label.

Issue - Combiner cannot replace previous label.fsm

You need to put "Product5" in quotation marks since it is a string.

For "Assign Labels: Get Table Data" and "More Steps", should I use the actual name of the item (Item.name) or the label (Item.ItemName)?

For the product5, if I want to use the actual name, can I match the actual name to the latest "ItemName"?

Personally I'd use the label, but I don't see a reason why the name wouldn't work.

You can of course always change the name according to the label.

Either in a code snippet in a trigger (item.name = item.ItemName) or in a Custom Code activity (token.Item.name = token.Item.ItemName).

Let's stick with only using the label as ItemName.

Under the Decide (Has ItemName?) port #2's Assign Labels: Get Table Data (Assign Label).: Get Table Data, I updated "token.Item.name" to "token.Item.ItemName".

Under the Decide (Has ItemName?) port #1's Assign Labels: Get Table Data (Assign Label), I updated "token.Item.name" to "token.Item.ItemName".

Under More Steps (Decide), I updated the "== token.Item.name" to "== token.Item.ItemName" in More Steps (Decide) in the process flow.

I am getting this error.

But then, it seems to work if I keep the "token.Item.name" and not update it to "token.Item.ItemName" under the Decide(Has ItemName?) port #2's Assign Labels: Get Table Data.

I am a little confused when the token gets assign the "name" and why I cannot use all ItemName as label everywhere in the token.

The token enters that activity because it does not have the "ItemName" label yet. Here you can't use the label to get the row to then get the label value. I missed that when saying that either would work.

That said, you can avoid even needing to assign the "ItemName" label in Process Flow if you do it directly in the source.
