Active Roles workflow with value from attribute

Question

Hello, We need to configure workflow that search value from attribute, for example: If description attribute equal to home address attribute value do X. We succeed to configure it with text - but we need to compare it with value in attribute. How to do this? 
 Thanks,

There could be additional ways to do this but I was able to accomplish this by using a Search and a nested If-Else workflow step in an Automated workflow. 
 The Search step is used to get the initial set of user objects to run the comparison against. I set my search base to a specific OU and inserted a condition that looked for the Description attribute is not empty. 
 Then nested within the Search step there is an If-Else where one side of the If-Else determines if the two attributes in question (Description and Home Address in your example) on the objects found by the Search activity are equal. Placing the If-Else step within the Search activity will allow you to compare any attributes on the user objects found by the Search workflow step. When configuring the comparison in the If-Else step you can select "Property of object found by search activity" and select any two attributes you want. 
 I also tried this using nested Search activities, but this will most likely flood the workflow Run History with an entry on every user found by the parent Search step.
