Dear OF team, I would like to know how one can dynamically reset an attribute to an empty entry following posteriori changes of a preceding attribute. In a concrete case, the survey calculates the attribute ‘collection.number’ based on the preceding field ‘yesno.specimen’. It may occur that one mistakenly ticks “yes” in ‘yesno_specimen’. In this case the subsequent field ‘collection.number’ will be automatically filled. The field is not calculated in order to enable manual changes. If one now decides differently that no specimen is to be collected and changes the preceding field ‘yesno.specimen’ to “no”, the collection number will nonetheless remain and effect all subsequent collection numbers. Concretely, it will create an empty collection number with no associated specimen. Thus far, I have manually deleted the collection number before changing the field ‘yesno.specimen’. I now wonder whether there is a way to automatise this process and implement a dynamic response of the field ‘collection.number’ based on the field ‘yesno.specimen’. Thanks very much in advance for any piece of advice, Jan asked 28 Mar '23, 13:32 janklein |
