Hello I am trying to filter a case list in my child case modules using a
property that is saved to the parent case.
The structure of my application is attached in the excel spreadsheet
(problematic filters are highlighted in red).
I believe the reason I am having problems is because the property I am using*
'combine_el'* is not saved when the child case is created. It is saved to
the parent 'household' in a followup module. I have tried to load the
property into the forms with case type 'household'member' but this does
not seem to work.
Is there another way?
Cheers,
Jess

Hi Jessica,
I might be missing something but you should be able to save that property
to the child case when its created. Alternatively, you can access
properties of the parent case knowing the child case. Both methods are
described here

Cheers,
Will

Hi Will
Thanks for that information. I have applied the filter below to my case
list. But that still does not seem to work.
The property combine_el is in a followup form for the parent case and
therefore is not saved to the child case when it is created.
(combine_age_months <'60') and (parent/combine_el ='1')
I am not sure what i'm missing.

Jess

Hi Jess,
Hard for me to know what might be the issue without looking at your
specific code. I'd usually try displaying that (or other) parent values in
the case list to debug. You should be able to select these from the "Add
Property" drop down and then copy the syntax from there. If that doesn't
work then you can report a bug from your domain and we can take a closer
look.
Cheers,
Will

Hi Jess - my apologies, it appears that you've actually come across a bug
in HQ where parent references in filter expressions aren't being
transformed as they are in display properties.
I've submitted a ticket to address that issue. In the meantime you can work
around this by hard-coding in the full path to the parent case property, IE:
instance('casedb')/casedb/case[@case_id=current()/index/parent]/combine_el =
'1'
Cheers,
Will
