Lpl passing a value from a form to a list.

melissa-serrania

Good morning,

I have a question. I have an action request form under manger my staff. I select the employee and select the action request. now i see a form with the employee information. In this form i have a list calling the business class "Job Requisition". I want to filter the list "Job Requisition" by the current employee department number. How do i pass the employee department number over to the job Requisition list?

so the form is using the employee business class and has a relation with workassignment to bring the employee department number

job requisition business class used for the list.

I did a relation from job requisition to employee and was able to bring employee class fields into the job requisition list, BUT the employee fields are the manager (my details) not the staff i have selected.

Does a relation exist between the "job position business class" and the business class with the employee's "current department data"? If so, I believe you would just edit the list LPL and reference the department number field using the format "relationname.fieldname" or "last relationname.fieldname."

If not I believe you can create a relation between the two business classes and then edit the list to reference the field using the relation and the field.The LPL for the list would be "relation.fieldname" or "last relationname.fieldname"

If there are any existing fields on the list that are part of the same business class as the "Current Department Number Field" you should be able to use the same LPL format for that field and adjust it for the Current Department Number Field you want to display,
