# New & enhanced nodes

## New Switch Case node

The [Switch Case](https://clickatell.gitbook.io/flow/action-nodes/action-nodes-switch-case) node is an action node (i.e., not user-facing) that routes a user to a specific step based on a flow variable's value. It is similar to a [Menu node](https://clickatell.gitbook.io/flow/user-facing-nodes/branch-logic-split/menu-nodes-menu-with-options), but instead of relying on the end-user's input to decide which route to take, this node relies on the value of a certain flow variable.

## Enhanced Chat 2 Pay node

We've made several enhancements to the [Chat 2 Pay node](https://clickatell.gitbook.io/flow/user-facing-nodes/commerce/chat-2-pay).

Flow-builders now have the option to either let Chat Flow **generate an order number automatically** or they can **generate a custom order number** specific to your business based on an API call. Auto-generated order numbers are available as variables to be used in the workflow.

We've also included the ability for flow-builders to add any **additional data** to payment requests. This gets passed to the payment provider and can be used to match on their backend system (in case of incomplete transactions). These key:value pair fields support variables.

## Dynamic List pagination

[Find out more](https://clickatell.gitbook.io/flow/user-facing-nodes/branch-logic-split/menu-nodes-dynamic-list) about how to set up pagination on this node.
{% endhint %}

Previously, when using the [Dynamic List node](https://clickatell.gitbook.io/flow/user-facing-nodes/branch-logic-split/menu-nodes-dynamic-list) to present an option list that exceeded 10 items to your end-users, it was automatically rendered as a text menu as shown below.&#x20;

We now support the ability to paginate dynamic lists instead of reverting to a text menu. If enabled for the node (default), the list above will now render as shown below.

{% hint style="info" %}
Note that pagination, even if enabled, will only come into effect for lists of more than 10 items.
