The users wish to choose product by select product family first.We may finish this in the following order. 1. create condition in LOV open the Edit the Properties of product, and select Properties tab. Click the Edit button. and then just add the product family as the precondition The generate SQL would be: SELECT DISTINCT DM_D_PRODUCT.ITEMDESCRIPTION FROM DM_D_PRODUCT http://hackbo.com/2013/04/cascading-prompts/ 2/4

Limitiation For XI 3.1 the order of hierarchical prompt is opposite. The product appears first and then product family. The order is correct in the XI 4.0 but lost the indentation. This is a product limitation and we can do nothing about it.
