I've created an object called Program Membership. There is a related lookup filter for the Sub-Branch lookup, which will only show the options under a selected Program (which is another lookup). When user changes the lookup value at the Program, the filter will automatically updated, and limit the Sub-Branch lookup results to reflect the change.

 

The filter works precfectly while creating new item, but when I try to edit the existing record, the lookup filter doesn't get updated. It is still showing the Sub-Branch options with the old Program lookup value instant of the new one.

 

Does anyone know the solution to fix it? Thanks
