I am trying to check to see if a node is blank, and if it isnt, then append additional information to it. This portion I can do. What I am wanting to do is a if /else and have it adjust another node if the node being check is blank.

I have tried the following and it tells me that the value is already defined.

if (source.checkNodeExists('PID-14.1'))   {
   var value = source.getNode("PID-14.1");
   message.setNode("PID-14.1","^PT^" + value);
} else {
  var value = source.getNode("PID-13.1");
   message.setNode("PID-13.1","^PT^" + value);
}

What can I do to make this work?

You're getting that error because "value" is being declared twice in your if statement. Try:

var value = ''; if (source.checkNodeExists('PID-14.1')) { value = source.getNode("PID-14.1"); message.setNode("PID-14.1","^PT^" + value); } else { value = source.getNode("PID-13.1"); message.setNode("PID-13.1","^PT^" + value); }

Didn't work. It just put the ^PT^ in node 14 instead of in node 13.

Ah ha, I got it. Needed to check if the node is blank instead of if it existed cause it does, every time.

This code worked.

var value = '';
if (message.checkNodeIsNotBlank('PID-14.1')) {
value = source.getNode("PID-14.1");
message.setNode("PID-14.1","^PT^" + value);
} else {
value = source.getNode("PID-13.1");
message.setNode("PID-13.1","^PT^" + value);
}
