Actually not even the filter for the com field is working...it doesn't seem
like it is evaluating ../dept as anything

which seems to be causing the error since the ".." evaluates back to the
instance rather than the question list it is in.
Anybody know the proper syntax for this?

Lookup table filters inside repeats are a bit confusing because the context
of the reference that you are making inside of the filter expression
actually resets to the context of the full form, meaning that a reference
to the form won't automatically contextualize to the particular repeat
instance you are in.
In order to make the reference you mentioned, you'll need to begin a
relative reference with a function, current(), this will make your
reference "start" at the context of the current question, so your filter
would be
dept_id = current()/../HH_travel_Dept
Let me know if that doesn't work.

So I see that when I write the entire question location in the filter

Sorry for the delayed response. It works though with a bit more editing
since my question was within another question list within the repeat group.
I'm going to leave these two links here for people exploring this issue in
the future:

Please assist on where to insert a logic. i have a scenario that ward, and village are lookup tables inside a repeat group. One first iteration goes well, but the second iteration village returns the error below
XPath nodeset has more than one node [/data/beneficiaries_and_incident_information[1]/ward[1];/data/beneficiaries_and_incident_information[2]/ward[1]]; cannot convert multiple nodes to a raw value. Refine path expression to match only one node.
Hi Clayton
Your support is greatly appreciated
I applied as you indicated and it did not work with me. What do you think is the solution?
Governorate = current()/../#form/general_information/gov
I have a repeatable section. In the repeatable I want to choose a governorate from the lookup table and then a region from lookup tables.. The choices in regions will appear based on the governorate selection.
@Ali_Agha I don't think you can combine the path syntax (current()/../) with the easy reference (the thing that says "gov"). Does it work if you just do this?
