Different visibility condition for same field in different tabs

Posted on by D365 User 06

Hi,

I have 2 tabs with similar fields, but I want their visibility condition to be different. I will elaborate my case scenario. So I have an entity called 'Requests & Responses'. Requests related fields will come on the 1st tab, and Responses related fields on the 2nd tab. Some fields are similar in both, like both 'Requested By' & 'Responded By' fields have the same option set or choices, i.e., names of the organization. There is an option called 'Others' in this option set. So what I want to do is, if a person chooses 'Others', I want another field to appear (which would be hidden till then) called 'If Others, Please Specify'. Now the problem I have is, this field called 'If Others, Please Specify' would be there on both the tabs, but if the Others have been chosen in 1 tab, I want this field to appear only on that tab. I tried using Business Rules, but if Others have been chosen in 1 tab, the hidden field is appearing on both the tabs. So please let me know if anyone has a solution to this problem.

Thanks!

RE: Different visibility condition for same field in different tabs

Hi,

As your description, you just create one field "If Others, Please Specify" and add it on both Request and Response Tab, correct?

If so, I have a question that when the both Request By and Response By 's value are Others, how could you store them? Because it can only store one field's value and another would not be saved into Dataverse.

In my option, you need create two 'If Others, Please Specify' fields, one for Request Tab and another for Response Tab. And then you could create a Business Rule to hide/show them easily.

Below is my test:
