Pattern Decisions This Source Supports

Pattern Supported decision Required contract Claim note
Dependent fields Choose dependent fields when one answer controls another field's valid choices, requirement, editability, helper text, or validation. Users encounter the controlling field before the dependent field in reading and tab order. ServiceNow supports dependent choice and reference fields where the selected controlling value determines available dependent options.
