Interface tool for Select

[Farriyajawed]

I am trying to get an interface for a select tool where after selecting the file in the app, the user can map the Account and Amount fields to the one in their file. 

I have the fields renamed in the workflow but there is a different file every time with different headers and I need them to map Account to Account in their file for the summary tool to work.

if feld names change - you'd need to choose chained app.

app 1 -> read in file - see columns.

app 2-> use two dropdowns to map your files.

I'd recommend using dropdowns connected to dynamic rename set with:

If [_CurrentField_] = "Test" then "Account" else [_CurrentField_] endif (in your dynamic rename set in formula tool -> action tool replaces specific string Test.

If [_CurrentField_] = "Test" then "Amount" else [_CurrentField_] endif (in your dynamic rename set in formula tool -> action tool replaces specific string Test.

Hi, 

Would you have an example workflow of how the chained app are set up with a select tool. I think that would help clarify it.

Hey - my advice is not to use a select tool. It's to use two dynamic rename tools. Have you built a chained app before?
