Hi, I am wondering how two different tables with different menu options can be combined and used in a “Menu selection” menu. The desired outcome is that if a specific condition is met, the options from one table should be displayed, and if another condition applies, the options from the other table should be shown. I would be grateful for any help I can get. Best regards, Viktor Example. ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/novacuratalk/original/1X/dc69ac3e506ba01a0fcafb6b8a448a97e9855aab.png) ---

Hi, You could just have one table and then add a column to it, let’s call it “Type” or something. Then based on previous conditions you can then filter the table (in assignment/script step) before using it in the User Step . Like this: ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/novacuratalk/original/1X/e628d147eea2c2aca697935862dab172573b96b3.png) ---

Hi again! I would like to set the default value in my menu selection input to orderId number 8 when running the flow, instead of the first value in the list. How can I retrieve this specific value from the list? ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/novacuratalk/original/1X/a1031e1048eab4786ad66726e673f160041c3a4a.png) ---

Hi again :). Many of the user steps items can have a default value. Apart from sorting the list you can also provide a default value for list selections, like this: ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/novacuratalk/original/1X/c2962a3972f26448169522f3e736d87572f0ff5a.png) ---

Hi Alluse, Sorry for replying on this thread but might be related so I tried. I wanted to use List Selection Input but the table comes from SQL. How can i add an “NA” option in my table to display in the field? I hope I am clear on this. Hoping for a response soon! Regards, Faye ---

You can do it one of two ways: 1. Add a union to your sql query with a bunch of empty column names except the one you are displaying in the Input selection 2. Append a record to your existing query using flowscript ---
