Populate a List type field depending on the value of another field

[shun6]

Hi developers,

I have a List type field and want to display choices based on another field value.

I tryed it by using  'Dependent on field' option and 'Dependent value' on sys_choice but it doesn't work for List type field.

Is there any way to achieve my requirement?

Thanks.

Hi @shun6 ,

With List type (added as choices) this won't work dependency
I believe current field looks like this (list with choices)

the only work around I can think of at this point is create custom a table for those choices and add a reference qualifier

or try using (question_choice) table come up with plan and see if you can add those choices in the question_choice table and make it depended using ref qual

@shun6 

it works only for list field having actual table being referred.
