Getting Dropdown to display entries from another entity

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 8

I am converting the case management template to something that will fit my use case. I am trying to to edit the New Case page that allows you to make new cases into the common database. How do I make the dropdown display options from another entity.

 

For example I want the dropdown to display a list of locations that are under the Locations entity and specifically list out all the different locations under the LocationNames column.

    Hi rdevine,

     

    Please try to add the location entity as one of the data source.


    Then customize one of the dropdown control. You could try to delete the old one, then add a new Dropdown control, then set the Dropdown’s Items property as DataSource.ColumnName.


    Then change the update property of the data card to Dropdown1.Seletected.Value.


    Please try it on your side. Hope this could be a reference for you.


    Best regards,
    Mabel Mao
