Field selector should also select parent

I have a list

Parent = Fruit

Child = Mango, orange and apple.

When i set up my field selection i can only select at child level. How can i select for parent level as well. I want my field to be dynamic. Means it can select at both child and parent level.

In order to get Parent Level you need to have Format of line item as parent list like AH03. And i am assuming AH04 list is used as your applies to in module. Then Parent(item('AH04')) will work.

Try to use flat list, give that as a selection and then filter hierarchy using this flat list selection.
