Hidden field based on requirements

    Asked on March 7, 2019 at 4:55 AM

    Hi there,

    In our form we added a hidden field ´Projectnummer´, which should be filled by a ´requirement´. The requirement is added as an image. SO I would like to have the calculated value in the field ´projectnummer´, however when I test the form, the field is not added. Can you help me with this? What am I doing wrong? 

    Please respons to this emailadres: els@marketingbyels.nl

    THanks in advance!

    Regards, 

    Els

    I am not sure if I have understood your requirement correctly. Do you mean to say that you want to populate fixed text "20190320P3D" in the "Projectnummer" field based on condition?

    If yes, you need to just edit the condition and change the values to text mode. Please check the screenshot below:

    Hope this help.

    Do get back to us if you have any questions.

    Hi Ashwin, 

    Thanks for your help. That is exactly what I mean. Based on the condition that they select a specific field from a drop down, the value 20190320P3D should be added in the field 'projectnummer'. 

    I changed your suggestion and tested it, but it still does not add the value. Do you know what I am still doing wrong? 

    Regards,

    Could you please let us know the widget or Form element which you are using for the "projectnumber" field. Could you please use the Short text entry field for this field.

    Do let us know how it goes.

    Thanks.
