# Dependent Picklists

When a field of type picklist (level 1) has one or more dependent child fields of type picklist (level 2 - level <n>), the UI updates the child fields' Replace with field option.

Update the child field's Replace with field with the identical option as its parent field's Replace with field option.

- Parent: Skip <-> Child: Skip
- Parent: Clear <-> Child: Clear
- Parent: Picklist <-> Child: Picklist
- Exception: When the parent field has its Replace with field option set to Custom…, then its child field's Replace with field option is set to Picklist.
