whilst using the Quick Create: Event, there are 2 fields that appear.

In order to avoid duplicate entry, i want these 2 fields to be appearing on the quick create. the 2 fields are from another table: Manifest.

any help on this matter would be appreciated.

thanks

Hi @AsheshR

To achieve this you must use Javascript to define those values in the onload of the form

function onload (executionContext) // Get a reference to the form context var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext(); // Pass executionContext as a parameter in your function // Set the value of the field formContext.getAttribute("nombre_del_campo").setValue("nuevo_valor");

Hello Jonathan, thank you for your input.

But can this be done without JavaScript?
for eg, creating a workflow or doing mapping?

Thanks

HI @AsheshR

Only if you use quick create from a subgrid, and the data you want to map comes from the parent table, can you obtain it immediately

If you want to do it with a workflow, it will be after saving the data and it must come from a relationship otherwise you will not be able to obtain it

Hi @AsheshR

It's not complex, it's simpler than it seems
