JS getting last not current value from cascading dropdown virtual field

[DesiLogi]

Hello,

I have some code running in the footer of an Update datapage that on change of one virtual field (Virtual 4: drop down) gets the value of another virtual field (Virtual 7: cascading text, with Virtual 4 as the ParentID) and copies that value of Virtual 7 into a text64000 field.  The problem is it keeps getting the 'previous' value of Virtual 7 and not the current one, when Virtual 4 is updated.  Meaning the code runs the 'copy' function BEFORE Virtual 7 is updated. I need to get the 'updated' data from Virtual 7 and copy that into the text64000 field. 

The code I'm using is: 

$("[name='cbParamVirtual4']").change(function(){
  
  f_copy_print_address('cbParamVirtual7', 'cke_EditRecordShipToAddress');
   
});
 

So if there's some way to 'refresh' or 'update' Virtual 7 before the f_copy_print_address code runs that'd be great. Many thanks!

Have you tried to fire the script when the cascading element changes?

$("[name='cbParamVirtual7']").change(function(){
  
  f_copy_print_address('cbParamVirtual7', 'cke_EditRecordShipToAddress');
   
});

Hi Douvega,

Thanks for the tip- I had tried firing the script on the change for the element and still had the same issue. I ended up changing the overall process and datapage for what I was doing and got a solution that way.
