Show 2 Fields based on Another field

Ray Navarro

Hi Experts,

I'm trying to show a custom field twice in a form.

Custom field1 is "Entity" (single-choice)

Field2 is, "Is this for another Entity?" (single-choice)

Then show the "Entity" field again on the screen.

Is there a way to this?

I'm using scriptrunner but it only works for a single field. Can I set this up to show the same field until the reporter selects No?

def cfA = getFieldById("customfield_ID1")

def cfB = getFieldById("customfield_ID2")

cfA.setHidden(false)

if (cfB.value == "No"){

cfA.setHidden(true)

cfA.setRequired(false)

}

else {

cfB.setHidden(false)

cfC.setRequired(true)

}

Hi @Ray Navarro , Welcome

You can try to add a third field called "Show Entity" which will be hidden or shown based on the value of the "Is this for another Entity? " field. If "Yes" is selected, the "Show Entity" field will be shown which is a duplicate of the "Entity" field. Otherwise, the "Show Entity" field will be hidden.

def cfEntity = getFieldByName("Entity")
def cfAnotherEntity = getFieldByName("Is this for another Entity?")
def cfShowEntity = getFieldByName("Show Entity")

cfEntity.setHidden(false)
cfAnotherEntity.setHidden(false)
cfShowEntity.setHidden(true)

if (cfAnotherEntity.getValue() == "Yes") {
cfShowEntity.setHidden(false)
} else {
cfShowEntity.setHidden(true)
}

Hi @Ray Navarro and welcome to the community,

No, it's not possible to show the same field twice on a screen. May I ask what is it you want to achieve by showing the same field twice?

Hi @Ray Navarro , Welcome

def cfEntity = getFieldByName("Entity")
def cfAnotherEntity = getFieldByName("Is this for another Entity?")
def cfShowEntity = getFieldByName("Show Entity")

cfEntity.setHidden(false)
cfAnotherEntity.setHidden(false)
cfShowEntity.setHidden(true)

if (cfAnotherEntity.getValue() == "Yes") {
cfShowEntity.setHidden(false)
} else {
cfShowEntity.setHidden(true)
}

Thanks! It looks like we need to create a separate field. I found my way thru checkbox field.
