Tell us what you are trying to do?
I want to set a taxonomy term based on user role

I found this in your help and hope to modify it
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/fixed-taxonomy-category-values-in-form/

I have four taxonomy terms and there will be no more added: office, recreation, economic-development, fire-department.

What I am trying to do is if the user role is:
"Recreation Manager" the taxonomy is set to "recreation"
"Office Manager" the taxonomy is set to "office"
"Fire Manager" the taxonomy is set to "fire-department"
"Development Manager" the taxonomy is set to "economic-development"

how would I adjust the code provided in the example on the link provided

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - You just need to apply the if condtion to check the current user role and assing the taxonomy term accordingly.

Please try to add the following code to your current theme's functions.php file
or
Toolset custom code section
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/adding-custom-code/using-toolset-to-add-custom-code/

For example:

add_action('cred_save_data', '',100,2);
function set_term_from_generic_select($post_id, $form_data) {
  global $current_user;
   
  if( $form_data['id'] == 9999 ){

    $current_role = $current_user->roles;

    $taxonomy = 'YOUR-TAXONOMY-SLUG';

    if ( in_array( 'recreation-manager', (array) $current_user->roles ) ) {
     $tag = "recreation";
    }else if ( in_array( 'office-manager', (array) $current_user->roles ) ) {
     $tag = "office";
    }else if ( in_array( 'fire-manager', (array) $current_user->roles ) ) {
     $tag = "fire-department";
   }else if ( in_array( 'development-manager', (array) $current_user->roles ) ) {
     $tag = "economic-development";
   }
   wp_set_object_terms( $post_id, $tag, $taxonomy, true ); 

  }
}

Where:
- Replace 9999 with your original form ID
- Replace YOUR-TAXONOMY-SLUG with your original taxonomy slug
- Replace the role slug if needed within the in_array argument

I was still having problems with this but found a solution that works better with more flexibility for me here: https://toolset.com/documentation/adding-custom-code/require-at-least-one-checkbox-of-a-checkboxes-field-to-be-checked-in-a-toolset-form/
