Saving temporary and permanent address values in one cdt

Question

Hi all , can anyone help me with the below requirement please. 
 
 I have a address cdt . In the interface below ( attached screenshot ) i have two section temporary and permanent address. 
 So there is a check box also in the interface . 
 My requirement is : if the check box is not selected both the temporary address and permanent address should be saved and if its selected both the address should be saved. But it should be saved in the same CDT 
 So can anyone help me on how to solve this.

Hi there, 
 On the checkBox's saveInto, you can store its value in a temp variable and then add multiple a!save() to save the values of temporary fields in the permanent fields (one value in one a!save()) if the value of the temp variable is not null. If it is null, clear all the permanent fields.

a!checkboxField(
 label: "",
 labelPosition: "ABOVE",
 choiceLabels: {"Temporary Address is the Permanent Address"},
 choiceValues: {true},
 saveInto: {
 local!sameAddress,
 a!save(
 ri!permanentAddress,
 if(
 a!isNullOrEmpty(local!sameAddress),
 null,
 ri!temporaryAddress
 )
 )
 },
 validations: {}
) And while passing this data to process, use the append function ( https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.4/fnc_array_append.html) to append both the PVs in a new PV to store both of them in one table, with one node.
