Need to populate variable choices into the Patient Type field, which is part of a Multi-Row Variable

Hi Everyone.

I have created two variable sets one is single row variable set and another is multi row variable set.

In single row I have a variable called facility which is select box with choices like MBC, FMC, MNH

and in multi row variable set I have a field called patient types. I have to show the choices in that field based on the choices selected in Facility.

I have written catalog client script but that is not populating since it is multi row variable set if not using variable sets logic is fine but here I wanted to work in multirow variable set. Can some one help me with this scenario please

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {

if (isLoading) return;

var field = 'patient_type';

// Clear existing options first

g_form.clearOptions(field);

// Add an explicit blank/placeholder option at the top to avoid auto-selection

g_form.addOption(field, '', '-- None --', 0);

if (newValue == 'BMC') {

// BMC options

g_form.addOption(field, 'B - NEWBORN', 'B - NEWBORN');

g_form.addOption(field, 'C - INTERMEDIATE/BO', 'C - INTERMEDIATE/BO');

g_form.addOption(field, 'D - BIRTH ROOM/LDRP', 'D - BIRTH ROOM/LDRP');

g_form.addOption(field, 'E - NICU B', 'E - NICU B');

g_form.addOption(field, 'F - SEMIPRIVATE', 'F - SEMIPRIVATE');

g_form.addOption(field, 'Y - ONE TIME', 'Y - ONE TIME');

g_form.addOption(field, 'Z - BRL REGISTRATION', 'Z - BRL REGISTRATION');

g_form.setDisabled(field, false);

} else if (newValue == 'FMC') {

// FMC options

g_form.addOption(field, 'B - NEWBORN', 'B - NEWBORN');

g_form.addOption(field, 'C - NURSERY-BORDER', 'C - NURSERY-BORDER');

g_form.addOption(field, 'R - BIRTH ROOM/OBS', 'R - BIRTH ROOM/OBS');

g_form.addOption(field, 'T - RECURRING', 'T - RECURRING');

g_form.addOption(field, 'U - DAYSTAY', 'U - DAYSTAY');

g_form.addOption(field, 'V - OBSERVATION', 'V - OBSERVATION');

g_form.addOption(field, 'W - EMERGENCY', 'W - EMERGENCY');

g_form.addOption(field, 'Y - ONE TIME', 'Y - ONE TIME');

g_form.addOption(field, 'Z - BRL REGISTRATION', 'Z - BRL REGISTRATION');

g_form.setDisabled(field, false);

} else if (newValue == 'WING') {

// WING options

g_form.addOption(field, 'B - NEWBORN', 'B - NEWBORN');

g_form.addOption(field, 'C - NURSERY-BORDER', 'C - NURSERY-BORDER');

g_form.addOption(field, 'P - TELEMETRY', 'P - TELEMETRY');

g_form.addOption(field, 'Q - OBS HIGH RISK', 'Q - OBS HIGH RISK');

g_form.addOption(field, 'R - MATERNITY-OBS/S', 'R - MATERNITY-OBS/S');

g_form.addOption(field, 'T - RECURRING', 'T - RECURRING');

g_form.addOption(field, 'U - DAY STAY', 'U - DAY STAY');

g_form.addOption(field, 'V - OBSERVATION', 'V - OBSERVATION');

g_form.addOption(field, 'W - EMERGENCY', 'W - EMERGENCY');

g_form.addOption(field, 'Y - ONE TIME', 'Y - ONE TIME');

g_form.addOption(field, 'Z - BRL REGISTRATION', 'Z - BRL REGISTRATION');

g_form.setDisabled(field, false);

} else if (newValue == 'BNH') {

// BNH options

g_form.addOption(field, 'C - REHAB SEMIPRIVA', 'C - REHAB SEMIPRIVA');

g_form.addOption(field, 'D - REHAB PRIVATE', 'D - REHAB PRIVATE');

g_form.addOption(field, 'E - REHAB LOA', 'E - REHAB LOA');

g_form.setDisabled(field, false);

} else {

// Not a recognized facility - keep field disabled and only the blank option

g_form.clearOptions(field);

g_form.addOption(field, '', '-- None --', 0);

g_form.setDisabled(field, true);

}

// Always clear any previously selected value so no auto-selection occurs

g_form.setValue(field, '');

}

your script’s fine for single row
but Multi row variable set is a different thing.
Put the logic in a Variable Set Client Script on the MRVS and use g_sc_form for the cells
read the parent Facility from g_form, then add options to the MRVS column with g_sc_form.addOption

for example
g_sc_form.addOption(field, 'B - NEWBORN', 'B - NEWBORN');
