Our UX team have found a use case where we want to have a dropdown for dynamically populated items (i.e. it could be a combination of a variety of items in the system), and the user would be able to select one item at a time to rotate between different pages. Is there any sort of Nextworld functionality that can fulfill this? ---

Is it dynamically dependent on another table lookup value? There is an option for Table lookup data items to setup up a dependency. You can see this in action on Workflow Orchestration Definitions where Orchestrating Data Item field is dependent on Orchestrating Table ensuring that the data item is a field on said table in a drop down style UX. ![Screenshot 2026-03-06 at 09.39.55](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex001/uploads/nextworld/original/2X/8/8f3b9ed2b56b6cc8b620f96a67ea42e673fa7045.png) ---

Hmm I am not sure because it is data specific (item A, item B, item C entered). I would have to tinker around with it to see, thank you for the suggestion. For more context: when we have a partially available item in a kit we have a splitting pop up display. We want the display to rotate between the backordered items in the kit and have a dropdown to go back and forth between the items if the user would like to do so. ---

I think it might. In the above, both TLs would need to exist on the application table. You’d likely need a TL to KitSelectionHeader and a TL for KitSelectionComponents with that dependent field defined as KitSelectionHeader configured on your popup . What I am unsure of is if you can limit that drop down by ONLY the backordered line items. It would likely give you a drop down consisting of ALL the components that Kit/Bundle has on it’s BOM ---

We are actually just using the kit as a template for component kits, so we do not need the header just the components. I see what you are saying though, I will give it a try. Thank you!
