Show/Hide choices on field depending on which group the user is member of

[Floridalife]

I am trying to hide some of the choice in a reference type field depending on which group the user is part of, at first i was trying to filter it based on what the u_assignment_group field was set to on the form, this is the client script i was   using but it didnt work (even tried SysID for the group), if this is the recommended way can you advise what looks wrong in the code?

function onChange() {
var sta = g_form.getValue('u_assignment_group');//get the value of state   
//var cat = g_form.getValue('category');//get the value of category   
//var com = g_form.getValue('company');//get the value of company   
   if (u_assignment_group == "8dd9bdaa37c45e009325dcc773990e25" || u_assignment_group == "SA" || u_assignment_group == "INF")/*if state is resolved AND category is Inventory AND company is HQ, then:*/   {   
       //now populate the choices:   
       g_form.addOption('call_type', 'Option 1', 'Option 1', 1);   
       //g_form.addOption('call_type', 'Option 2', 'Option 2', 2);   
       //g_form.addOption('call_type', 'Option 3', 'Option 3', 3);//etc...   
   }   }

Then i started playing with the dependent field but we have a handful of teams and i was forced to duplicate the choice for each team and use the sysid, very time consuming and messy, is there a better way ?

No go using reference, it wouldnt even remove the Request choice anymore

Good news though, i got the SYSID working, problem was the field name, it was set to change on Call type instead of group, silly details. WOuld be nice to get the reference working though cause working with SysID can be challenging, let me know if thats easy to get going. THanks !

I built that with Assignment Group as the Field Name.   It should work.   Have you tried it since specifying the field name?

I tried after changing the field name to GROUP yes, this is the code im using, anything missing?

function onChange() {   
   var group = g_form.getReference('u_assignment_group', hideStuff);//get the value of group   
   //var cat = g_form.getValue('category');//get the value of category   
   //var com = g_form.getValue('company');//get the value of company   
   function hideStuff(group){   
             if (group.name == "ISS" || group.name == "SA" || group.name == "INF")/*if group is SA OR ISS OR INF, then:*/   {   
                       //now populate the choices:   
                       g_form.addOption('call_type', 'sc_request', 'Request', 2);   
                       //g_form.addOption('call_type', 'Option 2', 'Option 2', 2);   
                       //g_form.addOption('call_type', 'Option 3', 'Option 3', 3);//etc...   
             }else{   
                       g_form.removeOption('call_type', 'sc_request');   
             }   
     }   
}
