Hi,
Any clue about converting a multi-select drop-down to a string?
An attempt to convert resulted in a code result.
Filed 1 = Multi-select dropdown
Field 2 (formulae field of type string)= concat (Field1, 0)
Is it expected?

Hi Harika ,
No the formula field will not work , You need to write a rule to put a case statment to convert the picklist to string I think now DD gives option to get the value of picklist.
Hi
This might help if you have not worked this out already.
In my scenario, I have a multi-select picklist (3 options only) for a method to capture Strategic Segment. Please note: A customer in our instance can be in multiple strategic segments, therefore we are unable to use a single select picklist
As you probably know, reporting and grouping single select picklist is easy. However not so for multi-select. In fact not really possible with out doing a transform.
Here’s what I did today
In Data Designer I duplicate the field (via a transform) this converts the data to comma separate string data. I then push this data into the Strategic Segment String field that I created via an action.
After running the data design, I can then report off this field. I do however end up having two fields;
The above situation works for me, however if you had an extensive multi-picklist - its going to get ugly and not really work.
