Hi,
You can achieve this by making the Subcategory field dependent on the Category field as mentioned below:
1) Right click on the Subcategory field and click on configure Dictionary and then scroll down to the Dependent Tab and select the Dependent field as "Category" as shown below:
Once the dependent field has been setup, then While defining the choices there is a field called "Dependent Value" where you can define the parent choice value on which the child value should be dependent on as shown below:
Like for e.g. in the above screen shot Dependent Value is Hardware present as a choice value in the category field.
Or
You can do this with the help of a client script also as mentioned below:
Write an on change Client Script on the Category field and write the below script:
function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
return;
}
var cat = g_form.getValue('Category');
if(newValue == 'New Category Value') // Replace the New Category Value with the value you want to have the validation
{
g_form.clearOptions('Field Name');
g_form.addOption('u_Subcategory', 'choiceValue', 'choiceLabel ');
g_form.addOption('u_Subcategory', 'choiceValue', 'choiceLabel ');
}
else if(newValue == 'New Category Value')
{
g_form.clearOptions('Field Name');
g_form.addOption('u_Subcategory', 'choiceValue', 'choiceLabel ');
g_form.addOption('u_Subcategory', 'choiceValue', 'choiceLabel ');
}
Hope this helps.Mark the answer as correct/helpful based on impact.
