Checking whether a dependent field has a value from the controlling field

Hi all,

 

There are 3 dependent fields test1,test2,test3,

 

test3 is dependent upon test2

test2 is dependent upon test1

 

test3 may or may not have a value...

 

Now i need to check in my apex class...whether test3 has any value for a particular value of test2

 

for eg: test2='value1' for this value of test2....test3 does not have any value... I need to check this without seeing the value of test3...

 

Is it possible...?

 

Thanks Much!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,

 

I think you cannot check the dependency in apex class. If you are using the <apex:inputfield> then dependency on the page will display otherwise you have to a custom logic in your controller.

 

 

Did this answer your question? If not, let me know what didn't work, or if so, please mark it solved.

Hi,

 

Yeah!!! Temporary solution is hardcoding...

 

Querying will not yield all the results.It will only fetch the records that is already saved in the database....

 

Does salesforce has any method to get the relationship between controlling and dependent field?
