Important Support and updates for Process Builder have ended as of December 31, 2025. This means that support won't be provided for any process and bugs in the Process Builder product won't be fixed. See [Workflow Rules & Process Builder End of Support](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=001096524&type=1&language=en_US).

After December 31, 2025, existing processes continue to run, and you can activate, deactivate, and edit them; however, we recommend using Flow Builder. To migrate existing processes, plan your [switch to Flow Builder](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.flow_migrate_to_flow_learning_map.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Flow Builder combines the capabilities of workflow rules and Process Builder in a single point-and-click tool, making it easier to create a triggered process. If you created triggered processes with workflow rules or Process Builder, use the Migrate to Flow tool to move them to Flow Builder. Start by migrating and testing in a sandbox environment before moving your new flows to production.") and use the [Migrate to Flow](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.flow_migrate_to_flow.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Use the Migrate to Flow tool to convert your Process Builder processes and workflow rules into Flow Builder, including scheduled actions. The tool also supports partial migration of processes for most actions.") tool. For new automations, create flows in [Flow Builder](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.flow.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Automation reduces repetitive work and helps your team complete tasks faster and more accurately. With Flow Builder, you can build simple or complex automations, forms, and guided experiences with no code. You can add forms to Salesforce pages and Experience sites, and launch flows using buttons, record triggers, or schedules.").

For example, set multiple values for the Country field for a company record that operates in Ireland, the UK, and France.

You can use multi-select picklists in:

- Formulas
- Process criteria
- Create a Record actions
- Quick Actions
- Update Records actions

In process criteria, set multiple values by creating one condition for each individual multi-select picklist value. For example, if your process checks whether changes were made to an account’s office locations, reference multiple values by choosing the same field for each multi-select picklist value.

Refer to [Tips for Working with Picklist and Multi-Select Picklist Formula Fields](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.tips_for_using_picklist_formula_fields.htm&language=en_US) for more information.

When you reference a multi-select picklist field in an action, enter values by clicking **Choose values…**

Add or remove values by dragging them between the Available (1) and Selected (2) columns.

Keep these considerations in mind when using operators with multi-select picklists.

- If you select only one value from a multi-select picklist field, you can use the Equals operator.
- If you use the Equals operator with multiple multi-select picklist values and choose the **Any of the conditions are met (OR)** option, the condition matches on one value only. For example, if your process checks whether a Region field equals West or East, the condition evaluates to true when the value is West or when the value is East, but doesn’t evaluate to true when both West and East are selected values.
- If you use **Contains** and **OR** to evaluate multiple multi-select picklist values, the condition evaluates to true on multiple values. For example, if your process checks whether a Region field contains West or East, the condition evaluates to true when a Region field contains West and East or when a Region field contains West or East values.
