Hello everyone!

Is it possible to copy the existing table with the data and get the same table with the different name?

If possible, please let me know how to do the same..

Regards,

Priya

Thank you for the details.

I believe copying the table in this scenario would be highly discouraged because technically it would be different data altogether if you create a new table also, it would be hard to maintain it. Many other reasons as well.

I would suggest creating a new single line text variable and populate the value you want to display for one of the reference field into that using script and hide the reference variable using the UI policies once the request is submitted. That way one reference variable will be on the form with its actuall display value and single line readonly variable with the other display value that you want.

Please see details Multiple Reference Display values

Hi @Priya

You are absolutely right there, display value for table is global, and you can't maintain different display values for a single table
