Auto-Update a Department Field

Forms Version 10
Updated July 13, 2017
asked on July 13, 2017

Hey everyone,

 

I'm just starting out in Forms and would like to get some advice on how to achieve this. I have figured out how to automatically fill out the name field on a Form based on the user who is currently signed in. However, I would also like for my Form to recognize which user is signed in, then auto-update the Department field based on who is logged in. How can I go about achieving this? Can you give me a guide or step-by-step instructions?

 

 

Thanks,

 

Ryan

Hi Ryan,

How is the relationship between logged in user's username and department defined? If you have a database that keeps that data, you could use lookup rule to do that: 

First add datasource for the database that keeps the data, see help on https://www.laserfiche.com/support/webhelp/Laserfiche/10/en-US/administration/#../Subsystems/Forms/Content/Settings/Data-Sources.htm

Then add lookup rule with your database, see help https://www.laserfiche.com/support/webhelp/Laserfiche/10/en-US/administration/#../Subsystems/Forms/Content/Lookup-Rules.htm
