Choice Table Element

Use the choice table element to provide different options for performing a step. The option descriptions may contain multiple actions.

Guidelines

  • Add a choice table element if there are multiple options to perform a step.

  • Any option in the choice table element should require more than one action.

    If every option requires only one action, use the choices element. See Choices Element.

  • In the step element introduce the choice table element.

  • Start each option with “To” to ensure that the options are understood as not obligatory.

  • If the option description includes two or more actions, add an introductory text and put the actions in the ordered list element.

  • The choice table element headers (“Option”and“Description”) are generated automatically in the output. Don't include the choice option heading element or the choice description heading element.
