The Set Values activity sets values on the current record when the workflow quiesces or ends.{#r_SetValuesActivity__set-values-shortdesc}

## Input Fields

The values you enter in the following fields determine the behavior of the activity. {#r_SetValuesActivity__entry__2}

| Field | Description |
|-|-|
| Set these values | From the list on the left, select the field on the current record whose value you want to set when the workflow quiesces or ends. In the user-input field to the right, select or enter the value to which you want that field set. Note: Avoid setting the same fields from different Set Value activities. The workflow only sets the value specified by the last Set Values activity run before quiescing or ending. |
[Table 1. Set Values Activity Input Fields]

Note:  
Using the Set Values activity to set the Approval field on a task does not cancel pending approvals. To approve a task in a workflow, use the [Approval Action](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=r_ApprovalAction&version=australia&pubname=australia-servicenow-platform&ft:locale=en-US) activity instead.
