Can we display value in drop down based on conditions

I (or someone else) can do that, but you'd need to provide some more details first.

Can you clarify what you mean when you say your dropdown is "inside for loop"?
How is the value of local!quantity set, and what value(s) will it / could it contain?
What exactly are you hoping to have happen in your if() statement, i.e. "if(local!quantity < cons!QUANTITY..." etc? In other words, I'm unclear both what you're expecting that to resolve to, and i'm unclear what your expectations would be about the choice labels that end up being displayed from it.

Thanks Mike... It would be of great help if you can provide any working code

Well there's your first problem - choiceLabels and choiceValues are both arrays, and they must always exactly match in length. "Labels" is what the user sees and "Values" is what's saved when the corresponding entry is selected. If you're going to conditionally show/hide members in the dropdown, you must do the exact same transformation on the lists you're passing on for both.

Drop down field(

Label:''available"

Choice labels: if (local! quantity<cons! QUANTITY), local! quantity,{}),

Choice value: cons! QUANTITY,

Value: local!data,

Saveinto: local! data,

)

Cons! QUANTITY: It has value {1,2,3,4..10}

My drop-down is inside for loop.

When am using same if condition in choice value it's throwing error.

What am trying is if the product is available less than 10 then only that no. Should display as drop down value.

Can you provide some more details? What are the logical conditions under which you're expecting to see different dropdown choices? Are these conditions affected by other on-form elements (i.e. dynamically changeable by the user), or decided beforehand so the values on the form in question will be relatively static? There are different implementation patterns depending on the answers to these questions (among others).
