    Hi all,

    In a Bill record Expenses and Items > Expenses subtab, I need to dynamically link a new Custom Column Field (Activity Code – as seen in the attached screenshot) to whatever the user selected as the Category.

    The Category field is obviously the list of Expense Categories (Setup > Accounting > Expense Categories). This is unchanged. What I need to do, is dynamically link my Activity Code column to show a drop-down List/Record based on the user's Category selection. For example, if I have the following 2 Expense Categories and linked Activity Codes (an Other Custom Multiple Select Field):

    Category
    Activity Code

    1
    abc, def, xyz

    2
    xyz

    If the user selects '2' from the Category, then the only option that should be displayed in my Activity Code drop-down should be 'xyz'. If the user was to select '1' from the Category, then the 3 Activity Codes should be displayed.

    Any ideas how I can achieve this?

    Thanks in advance,

    Kirk.

    Thanks for that j.j. That worked for me – sort of. I've done these before, but clearly NetSuite don't allow us to do this by using NetSuite's Expense Categories list. I've needed to make a copy of this in a Custom List, which isn't an ideal solution, but it appears to be the only way to do it for now.

    Thanks again,

    Kirk.
