Field Hierarchy:

This feature allows you to link a parent field to a child field so that any modifications of the parent field will change the options that are available to the child field.

Example:

Field relationships can be created with the use of the Hierarchy feature on Admin -> Hierarchical Fields page. This feature allows you to link a parent field to a child field so that any modifications of the parent field will change the options that are available to the child field.

Hierarchy Controls Example

After a hierarchy is created, the relationship is then defined in a table of checkboxes for each possible option. Each checkbox matches a parent option with a possible child option. When the box is checked, the child field will be available as an option if the parent field matches.

Hierarchy Table Example

Notes: - This feature requires that javascript is enabled by each user.
- If a field is deleted, the hierarchy must be deleted manually.
