    Issue with dependent Data Validation

    Hi,

    There are 2 types of query under query type that is Benefits & HR Operation , when I select any one, under sub query type only the queries should display that belongs to query type. I have done this. But when I select query type as “benefits” and sub query type as anything as in the table then in last column under “call activity” all call activity should display (activities like – inbound, outbound, Outbound or VM call back, VM Retrieval, Forwarded to CAST, Escalated to ABC, Escalated to XYZ)

    Attached the sample sheet for your reference. if possible do it with this sheet and post it.

    Thanks!

    Yes..my issue is if I select any sub query in column D under benefits then in Column E all the Call/Activity type should display. but ACW & Email should not display since its comes under HR Operations.

    I've added a second named range for each group that covers the column E choices, and edited the Data Validation for the Call/Activity section to use the second range.

    Hello Anwitha,

    See the attached. Moved the validation entries in to a new sheet. You can Add/Delete Query/SubQuery/CallActivities.

    See the attached.
