Hi

There are two ways with which you can handle this situation

  1. Either we can fix the issue with type into activity itself where use DelayBetweenKeys to ensure that it types all characters without missing any
    Or we can include fix based on the issue u r facing now

  2. Or we can use input Dialog box to show the date value read from excel like you can pass that date value along text or label property of input dialog box and let the user to validate
    Once users sees that they can validate and provide yes or no as answer

Get that yes or no answer and store in a string variable

Then use a IF condition like this
Strinput = “yes”
It goes to then block which means it is correct and u can now use that date value as it it

If wrong then use another input dialog box to get the actual date value as string input
Then u can use that string date value for your process

Hope this helps

Cheers @Aditya_Nalawade
