auto fill subpanel fields, Need Help

[blitz2190]

i have created a custom module with a one-to-many relationship from cases to custom module named dev request. The case field auto populates which is good. Now i want to be able to do the same with two other fields in those modules
ex.
to go from cases to dev request

 products_c => products_c (these are dropdowns)
version_c => version_c (these are text fields) 
  

any ideas?
-thank you

ok iv narrowed it own to adding this to vardefs

 <?php
// created: 2010-01-07 10:29:12
$dictionary["ad21_Dev_Request"]["fields"]["product_c_link"] = array (
  'name' => 'product_c_link',
  'type' => 'link',
  'relationship' => 'cases_ad21_dev_request_c',
  'source' => 'non-db',
  'side' => 'right',
  'vname' => 'LBL_CASES_AD21_DEV_REQUEST_FROM_CASES_PRODUCT',
);
?>
<?php
// created: 2010-01-07 10:29:12
$dictionary["ad21_Dev_Request"]["fields"]["product"] = array (
  'name' => 'product',
  'type' => 'relate',
  'source' => 'non-db',
  'vname' => 'LBL_CASES_AD21_DEV_REQUEST_FROM_CASES_PRODUCT',
  'save' => true,
  'id_name' => 'cases_ad21e427stcases_ida',
  'link' => 'product_c_link',
  'table' => 'cases',
  'module' => 'Cases',
  'rname' => 'name',
);
?>  

but how would i change this to pull the products_c field from cases instead of the name of the case

i have the same problem still, now i have a custom module called dev request, that is a subpanel of cases, when i create one it pulls the case name, but i need it to also pull the account name from the case, there will always be an account name in the case that a dev request is made from so i can use parent id but i d not now how i would do this

Hi blitz2190,

replace

 'rname' = 'products_c',

no need to do so much stuff just edit the following file...

sugarcrm\include\generic\SugarWidgets\SugarWidgetS ubPanelTopButtonQuickCreate.php
add the code like this any where after these lines of code ....

if(!empty($defines['view']))
$button .= '<input type="hidden" name="target_view" value="'. $defines['view'] . '" />';
$button .= '<input type="hidden" name="to_pdf" value="true" />';
$button .= '<input type="hidden" name="tpl" value="QuickCreate.tpl" />';
$button .= '<input type="hidden" name="return_module" value="' . $currentModule . "\" />\n";
$button .= '<input type="hidden" name="return_action" value="' . $defines['action'] . "\" />\n";
$button .= '<input type="hidden" name="return_id" value="' . $defines['focus']->id . "\" />\n";
$button .= '<input type="hidden" name="return_relationship" value="' . $relationship_name . "\" />\n";


__________________________
Add these lines of code after these lines of code --Add as many field as u want to autofill in subpanel

if(!empty($additionalFormFields['parent_id']))
{
if($defines['child_module_name'] == "subpanelmodulename"){
$additionalFormFields['subpanelmodulefieldname in studio'] = $defines['focus']->mainmodulefieldname in studio;
$additionalFormFields[''subpanelmodulefieldname in database'] = $defines['focus']->'mainmodulefieldname in database;
}
else {
$additionalFormFields['parent_id'] = $defines['focus']->id;
}
}
+++++++++++++++++++++++
If it will not run let me know................
Best of luck
