Hi,

Write onChange client script on yes/no field.

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
return;
}

var nameVal=g_form.getValue('name'); //Enter correct field name which is in bold

var adrs=g_form.getValue('address'); //Enter correct field name which is in bold

var countryVal=g_form.getReference('country').name; // I believe country is reference field

g_form.setValue('name field',nameVal); //Enter correct field name which is in bold

g_form.setValue('address field',adrs); //Enter correct field name which is in bold

g_form.setValue('country field',countryVal); //Enter correct field name which is in bold
}

Write a onChange client script on your checkbox field yes/no and add below code

if(newValue == 'yes') {
  var name = g_form.getValue("name"); //check field name and change
  var address = g_form.getValue("address");//check field name and change
  var country = g_form.getValue("country");//check field name and change
  //set in the other section of the form
  g_form.setValue("other_name",name); //check field name and change
  g_form.setValue("other_address",address);//check field name and change
  g_form.setValue("other_country",country);//check field name and change
}

Hi RK,

You need to onChange Client Script for this requirement.

Please use below script it will help you

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {
if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
return;
}
if (newValue == 'Yes') {
var name = g_form.getValue("name");
var add = g_form.getValue("address");
var coun = g_form.getValue("country");

g_form.setValue("section_field_name", name);
g_form.setValue("section_field_address", add);
g_form.setValue("section_field_country", coun);
}

}

@rkreddy 

there are multiple approaches for this

1) if you want this to happen real-time then use onChange client script on that Yes/No field

OR

2) if you want this not to happen real-time then use before insert/update BR and then copy the fields
