How to configure a cascaded lookup in Forms

How to configure a cascaded lookup in Forms

If you want a cascaded lookup to give the user only choices in a dropdown that apply for a choice earlier made, you can configure that in your form.

In this example we want to filter regions based on a pull down menu from a list of countries. Therefor we have two lists in the background; a list with countries, and a list with Regions, that has a lookup to the list with counties, like this:

Ein Bild, das Text, Screenshot, Zahl, Schrift enthält.

KI-generierte Inhalte können fehlerhaft sein.

You can configure a cascaded lookup by using the filter in the lookup field configuration panel:

Ein Bild, das Text, Screenshot, Schrift, Zahl enthält.

KI-generierte Inhalte können fehlerhaft sein.
 
Ein Bild, das Text, Screenshot, Schrift, Zahl enthält.

KI-generierte Inhalte können fehlerhaft sein.

 

Using the Query editor you can create the cascaded lookup:

Ein Bild, das Text, Screenshot, Zahl, Schrift enthält.

KI-generierte Inhalte können fehlerhaft sein.

Now the result is that if you select a country, only the regions for that country are visible:

Ein Bild, das Text, Screenshot, Reihe, Zahl enthält.

KI-generierte Inhalte können fehlerhaft sein.
