Populate data from parent to grid form

Confluence User - 03 Apr, 2016

Hi Experts,

I need to populate data from one field in parent Form to second field in Grid Form form as shown below.

Using hash variable #form.tableName.fieldId# is not an option as parent Form data is not saved yet, so I'm not getting value before "save".

Do you have any idea how to fix this issue? I was also trying to use below CustomHTML code but without success.

 

<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
var diff = FormUtil.getField("ParentFormFieldID"); });
$('input[name=GridFormFieldID]').val(diff);
</script>

Hi Sylwester Nowak,

Maybe you can try this Javascript in the form grid's form:

 
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
....
var ParentValue = $('[name$=ParentFieldId]', window.parent.document).val();
....
</script>

Hi Satria,

use below code, it works for me (you need to add Custom HTML in grid form and change naming for fields.

BR,

Sylwester

 

<script type="text/javascript">
//script which is populating data from parent table
    $(document).ready(function(){
        var mainFormField = "parent_field";
        var fieldId = "grid_field";
 
        //get value from parent form
        var value = $('[name='+mainFormField+']:enabled', window.parent.document).val();
 
        //store the value to a field
        $('[name='+fieldId+']:enabled').val(value);
    });
</script>
