Dependencies

Dependencies are used in the Supply Chain module to link several steps in a form and create dependencies between them. These dependencies are carried out automatically when a form is used. Dependencies can be applied to steps and fields. In this chapter, we will explain how to create dependencies for steps and fields, as well as how to remove them.

Dependencies can be linked to the value of fields and activated according to the selection made by the person in question. Dependencies can be created for all other selectable fields.
