I have a Global Code that has the code value and description. I want to be able to display both the code value and description. I understand I can have 2 initiative ID fields, 1 display the code value while the other displays the description, but how would the initiative description be written to the database?

Is there a way to have a field populated based on a drop down in UI Designer?

Hi ​@qquac,

Are you trying to populate the drop-down with both code value and description? or do you want the write values into global codes with code value and description combined?
I am not clear on this.

Hello ​@eluxpiumal,

When the drop down is selected, I would like the corresponding description populated in the text field, INITIATIVE DESCRIPTION, right beside it. For example, if “SD-1.11” is selected from the drop down, I would like “Price Increase” to be populated in the INITIATIVE DESCRIPTION text field.
