In a workflow assign data activity, ii appears the the 'Replace' option is selected by default when assigning any type of data to any other type except for a Keyword field of a document.
Is this by design? Is there never an option to leave a field with the value that it already contains, from a previous action or when the document is stored?
I have some instances where if an index field of a document already contains a value I want to leave it as is, but replace it if it's empty. Is my only choice to test the value of the field first and skip the assignment if it is not empty?
Thanks,
