    Talking Field Populating

    Hello,

    I have a really simple question that probably has a very simple answer

    I have created a booking form module that i have done a one to many relationship with the Leads module,

    When i click create booking i would like that the first name field in the Leads edit box auto populates in my booking form first name,

    How would i go about doing this?

    Im running version 6.2

    Thanks,

    Jake.

    Default Re: Field Populating

    In CE, you would have to do some coding. The easiest way I can think to do this would be a logic hook where you would fill in that field on the save. Other than that you would have to code an override to the view for that editview and set the fields value there (which is a better way of doing it, just harder). Both of these are gone over in the developers guide on http://developers.sugarcrm.com

    In PRO or above you might be able to use SugarLogic to do this, or one of the methods above.
