Dynamically Show/Hide tabs in item forms based on values in other columns

Description: In a list we can group all the related fields as a tab using ‘Crow Canyon Forms Manager’. Using Forms Manager App we can also configure permissions on Tabs and Columns to Show/Hide tab/column based on the values in other columns such as Category.

(For more information, please open ‘Crow Canyon Forms Manager App’ and refer ‘User Manual’)

 

 

This article describes how to configure dynamic tab behaviour in Assets list based the category selected for the Asset

1. Navigate to Forms Manager App from either Site Contents or Crow Canyon Application Administration. Select Assets list and create tab for Vehicle related fields in the list as shown below using Forms Manager App:

 

Enter Tab name and select the fields to show in Tab:

 

2. Configure Tab Permissions on this tab under ‘Tab Permissions’ section:

 

Enter permission name and other details as shown:

 

Check ‘Dynamic condition evaluation’ so that Tabs will show/hide as selection changes in the Asset Category field

 

3. Open Assets New Form, ‘Vehicle Details’ tab should only show when ‘Asset Category’ is ‘Vehicle’. In all the other cases it will be hidden. Same behaviour wil be there in Edit and Display forms.

 

 

Similarly, we can Show/Hide any number of tabs/columns based on different conditions.
