#2651 - Can't copy relate fields and date format issue
Hi ,
I downloaded VIAutoPopulateFields-6.0-Version7.11.zip yesterday. Our Suitecrm version is 7.11.8. I' m facing the two following issues :
1) I Can't copy relate fields from one module to another. I have an empty value and when i want to save the record, i ve got a "No match for field: prescripteur"
2) We have also a problem when populating a date. We use dd/mm/yyyy date format. For exemple : Our date in the first module is 18/03/2020 after populating the date is 2020-03-18. As a consequence, when saving the record we ve got an "Invalid Value" message.
thank's in advancce for supporting us. Christophe

HI again,
3) I ve met another issue, the value of a dynamic dropdown is not populated to another dynamic dropdown. Ex : on the "opportunity module" i ve a dropdown and a dynamic dropdown linked. I created the same fields with same lists linked on the quote module. When i want to populate both of them, the dropdown is well populated, but the dynamic dropdown not. Is it a bug ?

Hello,
Thanks for the new version. Both problems (dynamic dropdown lists and date formats) seem to be fixed.
However, I ran into a minor (for now) issue. After the install, autopopulation didn't work fully right away. Some fields weren't being populated : the date field on which we had the problem for instance, but also fields on which we didn't have any problem. The dropdown lists and dynamic dropdown lists were being populated however.
I tried running a Quick Rebuild and Repair but it only got worse, none of the fields mapped were being populated after that. I then tried to resubmit the mappings (just opening and re-saving them), but it didn't do any good. Eventually I've had to delete and re-create the mappings and now it works just fine.
It is a minor inconvenience for now as we're just starting to use the add-on and therefore don't have too many different mappings yet. But as we start creating more of them, it will turn into a real chore if we have to delete and re-create them with every update.

And yet that's what I had to do for it to work properly after I installed this update. Hopefully this was just a random issue and won't happen again in the future. I'll let you if it does with the next update.
