Hi expert,

what the mean of this javascript:"u_active=true^parent="+"" code in  Reference qualifier

As i understand it active is true, But what is parent="+".

Hi,

it's kind of advanced ref qualifier which says

show those records which are active and whose parent is empty

Could you please elaborate the term  "whose parent is empty"

Thank you.

parent if reference field on table referring to task table?

correct me if i wrong

OOB department table has parent field which refers to Department table

So it would show active departments + those departments whose parent field is empty

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.
