Display two Option field as checkbox inside business process flow in dynamics 365

Display Checkboxes Inside Business Process Flow (BPF)


By default OOB there is NO such functionality to make two options set fields as checkbox inside Business Process Flow.  

We can use the following<<workaround>> to achieve the desired functionality, specifically how to implement two options set as a checkbox in your business process flow without the use of any custom script.

Here, the trick is to use Unicode symbols as values in the preferred field. Dynamics 365 fully supports Unicode symbol encoding which adds more visual functionality for information in our solution:

☐ ☑ ☒

So, we start by adding these values(labels) to the field in the configuration(tips: make the field not searchable if not required):


Complete this configuration on all current "Two Option set " fields from your BPF, publish the changes in your solution, and check the result in BPF:


That's all! Thanks
