Question

"Multiple Group" Field Rule

asked on February 3, 2021

Is it possible to set up Field Rules in such a way that you have conditions like this?

 

Show/hide xyz fields if (group of a few different conditions) and/or (group of a few other conditions)

 

For example, 

Show First Name

If (type = student and student ID is not blank) OR (type = employee and employee ID is not blank)

 

I would think that I could just use 2 different field rules for this, where one has the student conditions and the other has the employee conditions, but when I tried a solution like this, my field rules ended up not functioning properly.

Grouped conditions are not currently supported. When I need something like this, my workaround is to use a field on the form with Formulas/Calculations to handle that logic, then I attach the field rule to that field.

For example

=OR(type<>"",AND(type="employee",employee_id<>""))

Then my field rule would check if that field is "TRUE"

Thanks Jason! That's a clever solution.
