Workflow: Add additional value on existing property

ssential

Is there a way that when a document hits a state in a workflow that a value is added?

Basically, we have many teams in our org. The document could be originating from Team A as they prepare the document. (Property: Team: Team A)

Is there a way that when a certain state is reached, that Team B is added to the multi-select property of Team?

So far I've found that workflows will let you set a property, but it will remove any previously entered Values.

    So you want to add an extra value to a multiselect property. You could create a script to do that for you. The script could retrieve the list of lookups already in that property, add one more item to the list and then save it again.

    cool, I'm script-literate - do you have an example script that I could mimic for my needs?

    Well, I have a rather complicated 300+ line script that does the above while retrieving lookups from several different sources, checking that they are not already in the list and then saving the new, compiled list into a new property. That is way too complicated for your purpose, it would take some time for me to pick out the relevant parts and create a working sample. But I do believe I posted something of the sorts about a year ago. Perhaps a search might help you find that example. Can't remember the topic from back then though....
