How to add static option on Lookup Select Box catalog item variable?

Hi,

I have one requirement.

 

I have three catalog form questions (Q1, Q2, Q3) referencing the same table. Q2 options depend on Q1, and Q3 options depend on Q2 using logic in a Script Include. I need to add a static option to Q3 regardless of the dynamic population. g_form.addOption() isn’t working. How can I achieve this?

Hi @KS86 ,

use reference qualifier 

have a record (for the static option)on the table that the choice field is referencing and use reference qualifier.

based on the condition or always

 

you can have the script include return the reference qualifier and use the script include in the q3 reference qualifier

 

if you still having issues

 

please share all the details of your business requirement

If I create the record in the table, Q3 is always showing up on form. It has to show only when we select any option in Q2.

Please assist.

@KS86 

How about hiding Q3 till anything is selected on Q2

@KS86 

then in the advanced ref qualifier of Q3, let it bring the options based on Q2 you can include your static option using OR condition 

Something like this

javascript:'Your ExistingReferenceQualifier' + '^ORvalue=yourChoiceValue';
