Hi all,
Im using a table in a calendar view to display my free job slots which I am then clicking on to create a new job record in another table.
Is it possible to auto populate date fields from one table to another? i.e. after clicking on a record from a calendar can the start and end dates of that record be transferred over to another table?

The general answer to this question:
is yes.
However, it may not do so in the way you are wanting. This would need to be done through linked records – your “Free Job Slot” records from the calendar view would need to be linked to the table you want their start and end dates to transfer to.
You’re language is a bit vague regarding what you’re trying to do though, so I’m unsure as to whether you are creating new records when you “click on a record from a calendar”, or if you are just expanding that record to view its details…
Here’s what I’m imagining:

sign in the Linked Record field from the “Free Job Slots” table, and click “Add New Record” at the bottom, to create a new “Job” recordSep 06, 2018 10:02 PM
What you imagined is correct - despite my vagueness. Many thanks.
