Issue with confiforms smart dropdown field when trying to reference fields from other form.

[Max Marshall]

I have a page where I am setting up the four following forms:

-Project (top level)

-Task type 1

-Task type 2

-Task type 3

Each of the task types have a smart dropdown to select an associated project record. Then I'm trying to filter a task display based on project info later on, but I'm running into issues. To troubleshoot I tried displaying some task field values in a table and saw the following:

-The "Task Name" field is correct and is a simple text field.

-The "Project" is the smart dropdown. Simply "project" for the fieldName.

-The "Entity" shows up as blank. This is "project.entity" for the fieldName and should reference the entity field in the project form, which is a radio group.

-The "Project Name" shows up three times for some reason. This is "project.name" for the fieldName and should reference the name field in the project form, which is a text field.

-The "Installation Date" seems to default to 12/31/1969. This is "project.date" for the fieldName and should reference a date field in the project form. This date field is not 12/31/1969.

I'm clearly doing something wrong here, anyone have any info that could help me get back on track? Thanks.

Hi @Max Marshall 

What is the configuration of the form that this "project" smart dropdown is linked to?

What field sit has and what is their configuration? 

I might guess about the date - must be a custom formatting used that is not quite right - how is the "date" field configured?

Hi Alex-

Thanks for the response. I think I've figured out some of the weirdness for now...I had a tableview merger earlier in the page and I didn't realize that affected things outside of the macro. I removed that and I'm back on track now.

Thanks again!

Awesome, glad you have figured it out!
