How to extract child value to determine which submission to be forwarded

    I have created a form

    https://form.jotform.com/250916056467058

    to capture volunteer requests to join a ministry. There are over 24 ministries all with their own leader. I want to forward their submission to the appropriate leader.

    I have a table

    https://www.jotform.com/tables/250916056467058

    with a column associated with the Dynamic Drop Down Widget. This column includes both the parent and the child. I want to create a column that will only contain the child value so that I can use that value to determine to whom the submission is forwarded. I will do this by using Conditions. This value may need to be a hidden form field?

    I am not sure how to extract the child info into a separate column and use that info to determine the recipient

    Can you help me figure this out.

    Thanks

    Eric Lawrence

    Hi Eric,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Could you let us know the child value that you are referring to and give us an example of a case when it is forwarded/not forwarded?

    Once we heard back from you, we'll be able to help you with it.
