I am creating a form for noxious weeds detections I currently have combo boxes for common name, scientific name, and weed class. I'd like to configure the form so when the user selects the common name, the scientific name and weed class auto populate. Does anyone have any idea how to accomplish this? Thank you!

Hi @CassidyWheat 

No problem, you just need to choose a different field (like common name) to base the templates on. The values you see now are based on a different field- whichever field the layer is styled on. One way to update that is:

  1. Open the map in Map Viewer
  2. Style the layer based on the Common name field

3. Open the template window

4. Click Update

5. You'll see new templates based on the different values listed in the Common name field.

What I do in my 123 form is have the Code as the name and  CODE    Scientific Name    Common name as the label.  This way users can search on and of the 3 they know.  Only the code stores but you can flip back and form via the domains created.  Works slick.  I would think you could do something similar in Field Maps.

Just an idea
