Not able to connect the Dropdown to DB

[aaryankakani]

Hello,
I am facing a problem in connecting the input drop down to the database.

So I have the static choices drop down for Financial year (FY) having the options as such: 11-12, 12-13, 13-14, 14-15 and so on and so forth.

So in the Work flow, I have added when Create new task is clicked, create a new task, where the Task Name= Input Task Name’s value and all the things you can see in the screenshot, now for FY (Financial year), I am not able to put in "= Dropdown FY’s value, it is asking for more logic after that (like is, is not).
Thanks!

@aaryankakani What’s the Data Type for FY?

[aaryankakani]

Numeric range

@aaryankakani Try using the Text Data Type instead.

Text data type will work fine. With current situation you are trying to store text into number data type.

But what better since FY is date you should use date range. From begaining of this financial year to this year 1st April 2018 to 31st march 2019.
