Hey,
Creating a record producer form to create a new incident.
I have a caller field in the form that once I select a caller, the position field will display the appropriate values of the caller.
I did this by script include :
And in the Reference qual field I called script include:
I need to add to the values in the Position field a value - other which will be a constant value that will always appear, as soon as the caller selects "other" a new field called "other position" of reference type must be displayed that shows all the positions that exist in the system.

creating a new record called other will not be a probable and effective solution in your case. This will lead to poor data management on table. Instead, try my alternative solution which is smooth and clean for your requirement.

okie my understanding was right !
there is no way you can add a custom choice to reference field, because reference field list all the values that exisits in its table. You can consider adding a new record called 'other' if it helps your requirement.
(Alternative solution) :
Alternatively, instead of leting the user select 'other' in caller field, try to introduce a check box field called 'other ' & when the user checks it make the caller field read only and displays a new field called 'other position' from which the user can select any choices.
i hope this helps.
