Can I use the same field in 2 different tabs ? on the same Module?

A given field can only appear once in a layout.

I've found three ways to address this:

1. Create a new field and set the calculated value as the field you want copied

2. Create a new field and use the "related" function for the calculated value (this will also copy the value in a related module)

3. Create a new field and use the "concat" function (I've done this with a few fields where I want the values of two fields to show)

Note: These fields can't be edited since they are calculated.

Enjoy!

Hi Bud,

Thanks for the help! All those seem to work but it depends on what Data Type the field is.

In my case, the new field Data Type is a Drop Down and it is also pulling data from a Drop Down. I don't seem to have the calculated/related/concat function with this Data Type.

Does the new field need to have a different Data Type?

Thank you 

Good Morning Peter,

I'd not done it with a drop-down field, but I just did a test.  You can create a text field and have it copy the the drop-down value using the calculate function.

Note: It copies the drop-down field value, not the Text you've set for the value.  In my case, it displayed "ship_to" not the "Ship-To Account" text that appears in the original field.
