Auto populate "Number" field from parent table to "Parent Request Number" field in Child.

[Rahul J]

G'day all,

I've posted this question before but couldn't get the working solution for it. To begin with, I've a form (RJ Request) which have a field "Number" as shown in the screenshot below:

Now, I want to auto populate "Number" field value onto "Parent Request Number" field of child form RJ Sub Task. Please find the screenshot below:

To serve this purpose I've created a Parent-Child Relationship b/w RJ Request and RJ Sub Task table. By creating a reference field in RJ Sub Task Table as "Parent Request Number". 

But as soon as I'm creating a Sub Task I cannot see "Number" populating onto "Parent Reference Number".

Can anyone please share any solution for this.

Cheers,

RJ

If you want to do it onload than you have to use client script. You cannot set value to read only field using client script.

Uncheck read only on u_parent_request_number field dictionary. than change back your business rule to below and enable client script.

change in your business rule is

var gr = new GlidRecord('u_rj_request');

if(gr.get(current.parent.sys_id)){

g_scratchpad.number = gr.sys_id;

}

I've amended those changes but still I'm unable to populate value into that field.

1.Unchecked Read Only- Parent Request Number

2. Applied this BR

3. OnLoad Client Script is applied and set to Active.
