Hello I would like to have only one switch for the mulptiple payload I want to test.  
But in a Switch Node we can put only one property I would like to put pultiple property because I need to add a new switch node for each test of my payload. I wan't only one switch node which do the work of all.  
Actually I have this :

Yes of course.  
I give you one example of switch :  
 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/nodered/original/3X/9/a/9a61190ddf0f1c7600c6e6d970c8229d63579584.png)  
And for each switch I have the same test rules bue not the same msg.payload  
The problem i that when my msg.payload.voltage is null I it returns the message that's why I used some switch.

I have this :  
 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/nodered/original/3X/2/4/245d43d2d83b89ee1ad965d4424974218d7e48b2.png)  
But I would like to have only one node for switch and one also for the treatment behind.

You can select JSONata rather than `!=`, and do the comparison of different properties in a JSONata expression  
e.g.

```auto
[{"id":"e7e98c87.110e28","type":"switch","z":"30af2d3e.d94ea2","name":"","property":"payload","propertyType":"msg","rules":[{"t":"jsonata_exp","v":"$$.payload.voltage != null","vt":"jsonata"},{"t":"jsonata_exp","v":"$$.payload.current != null","vt":"jsonata"}],"checkall":"true","repair":false,"outputs":2,"x":290,"y":1040,"wires":[[],[]]}]

```
