Batch Macro - 2nd Cntrl Parameter Not Working as Expected

Batch Macro Question

 

Can you have two Control Parameters in the same batch macro?  

If Control Parameter #1 is pointed to Field1 and Control Parameter #2 is pointed to Field2 and Group By is set to None?

 

So far, Control Parameter #1 (pointed to Field1) throws no errors. 

BUT, Control Parameter #2 (pointed to Field2) throws an error on the first tool it is set to replace a specific string.

And, the only value in Field#2 at present is the value used in the macro setup (so I know it should work).

Is the macro tying to pair Field#1 and Field#2?

Yes, you can have multiple control parameters in a macro.

What is the error you are getting?

Can you share the macro and a sample input to test it with?

I figured it out. The # of Control Parameters and Action Tools is getting a bit crazy (given this is my first batch macro using them).

I missed that one of the Parse Tools required inputs from two different Control Parameters
