Cascading dropdowns based on choice columns in SharePoint List

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi Community,

 

I am getting dropdown values for Function using Choices(BRD.Function). The result shows "Recruitment" in the image below.

The control name is Dropdown1_2

Now, i want to cascade the value selected in this dropdown "Function" to bring cascaded values for another dropdown1_1 for Status. The value of status is Active, Inactive, Under-Development- but my function is failing

Choices((Filter(BRD,Function.Value=Dropdown1_2.Selected.Value)).Status)

This above formula is not working as is show in the error on the right and this is also affecting my table filtering formula below

Based on these 2 dropdowns- i am filtering my table below with

Filter(BRD,Status.Value=Dropdown1_1.Selected.Value,Function.Value=Dropdown1_2.Selected.Value)

    Hi @Anonymous ,

    if you using cascading Drop down the don't use the CHoices in the second drop-down where you need to filter data based on the first dropdown.

     

    Directly you can use Filter command and Set thee mapping into value Property.
    Like below.

    Filter(TestAkshay,Title=Dropdown3.Selected.Title)

    Mapping for Value Property - (Select the field you want to DIsplay in the drop-down from the list in value property )

    @VijayTailor It doesn't work because i have both these columns "Function" & "Status" set-up as Choice columns in my SharePoint list.

    And on the dropdown you showed- it doesn't even show my complex type columns- see the screenshot below

    That is why i was forced to use Choice formula
