    RE: If else in option field in bussiness central

    Hi,

    If I understand correctly, you want to set different enums in other fields based on the option selected in your first field. For example, if 'cashInflow' is selected in your first enum field, then you want to set a specific enum with three options in your second field. If 'cashoutflow' is selected, then another set of three option fields should be set in the second field. If this is the case, then your code is not correct and I also recommend you to do it on the page level and using a variable as the field on the page..

    Please let me know if you need any help..

    Regards

    You can use the below code(FORMAT) ,

    Here Select Type is the field name of the type Option and Withdraw, Renew are values.

    Call this procedure in trigger OnValidate of Option & try giving a message in place of code.

    procedure SelectOption()

       begin

    case "Select Type" OF

               rec."Select Type"::Withdraw:

                   begin

                        // code

                    end;

    case "Select Type" of

               rec."Select Type"::Renew:

                   begin

                        //code

                    end;

         end;

    Please let me know.

    Hope this Helps.
