ScenarioProblemSolution Reference
A Page comprises of two Select components mapped to two tables A and B respectively. In the UI, based on the value from table A, a set of values from table B is filtered and displayed. Whenever table A value changes the corresponding values from table B must be filtered (using the FILTER condition) and displayed.The first select component is clicked and a value is chosen. When the second select component is clicked, the filtered values are observed as expected. If the selection in first select component changes, the second select component displays an empty list.Reset the Table B values from a master copy of Table B.Add a copy script in change event of the first Select component. Now, each time selection from Table A changes, the Table B is filtered from the original master data.
