How to access variable set values from another variable set

Hello,

I have record producer with 2 variable sets. I need to decide whether to show the second variable set based on the value that is entered in the first variable set. I assume that a UI Policy or a client script should solve this issue, however, it seems that accessing variables from another variable set is not a straight-forward task. Please let me know if you have tried something like this before.

Note: Both variable sets are multi-row variable set.

Thanks,

Use the onSubmit client script on catalog item level. 

 

Limitation MRVs

 

Note:

  • Catalog UI policies and catalog client scripts defined at the item level are not applicable for variables in a multi-row variable set. Only those catalog UI policies and catalog client scripts defined within the multi-row variable set are applicable for variables in the multi-row variable set.

If you have tried it and it worked with you, you would do me a great favor if you can add a screenshot.

If you haven't tried it yet, please try it to understand what type of problem I'm facing 🙂

here we go, i tried to hide it one variable set based on another variable set variable value on form. 

 

 

i am not sure what exactly have you done, first point, why are you doing it on onSubmit() ? why not on change ?

function onSubmit() {
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

if(g_form.getValue('one_vs') =='harsh'){
alert('coming inside if');

g_form.setDisplay('another_vs',false);
return false;
}

}

Hope it will help you. 

now let me know if you have any further questions on it. 

 

Note: This will even hide or show the variable sets based on the condition . 

Hi Harshvardhan,

Thanks for your effort and for trying to help.

I tried what you suggested but it didn't work. Can you please send me a screenshot of the client script.

There is important thing that I didn't clarify in the original post: the variable sets are multi-row variable sets.

here we go, tested for MRVs as well.  working fine. 

 

function onSubmit() {
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

if(g_form.getValue('one_vs') =='harsh'){
alert('coming inside if');

g_form.setDisplay('appss',false);
return false;
}
else{
g_form.setDisplay('appss',true);

}

}

 

Note: "appss" is my MRVS internal name.

Hi,

 

I don't really get your solution. How come your code runs on Submit but the variable set to which it is attached is single-row variable set?

Note: both my variable sets are MRVS
