"Test" Tool

Hi,

I am interested in using the "Test" tool to stop workflows from running successfully when certain conditions are not met

For example - see attached. If any records are 'False' in the Filter tool, I would like the workflow to stop running.

The workflow does run with an error but only after the Output Data tool has finished.

How would I stop the workflow before the output data tool starts doing its thing?

Do you really have to use Test Tool on it?

I found a way (not the fanciest, but it does work) to stop this workflow if the count does not match.

You can configure Message tool to throw an error and stop passing records through it.

Thanks very much, that will work for me

I found another way, as below and attached.

Add a dynamic rename after the 'False' path to take field names from first row of data

Then union that together with the 'true' path, and config union to stop processing records when fields differ

The top workflow stops at the union tool

The bottom one runs to completion.

Its not working the column names are still coming with it . I want such that the update is stopped fully.
