    Hi,

    I am creating a sales order receipt, and wanted to show automatically the description by just typing or pluggin in the item # in Item field, If I type “FT01” it will automatically display “Dasilog” in the Description Field, the how can I do that?.

    Qty Item # Description
    1 FT01 Dasilog
    3 FT05 Tasilog

    Thanks.

    BTW, I am still using the OLD Version of TF.

    Hi Efren,

    You would need to setup a Pick List that contains all of your values already like that. At the top of the Pick List select values screen is a Search field. If you type into that field, you’ll be able to filter the Pick List values to show only the ones that match what you type. Then you can select the one you want.

    So you would have to setup your Pick List like:

    FT01 Dasilog
    TF05 Tasilog

    There’s no feature right now that will let you type in a value into one field and have it populate a different field with some sort of associated value.

    You can use linked forms many 2 many. This way you can search on item # or description.
    Then use calculation field to populate it with the chosen child/father

    Thank you so much,

    I will try to experiment on this two scenario.
