Autopopulate relationships are used to automatically assign a value to a field based on the value assigned to a related field. For example, an autopopulate relationship could be established that links cost centers with work locations. In that case, when a user selects the cost center for a requisition in the Cost Center field, the appropriate location is automatically selected in the Location field. The tables that have autopopulate relationships are determined during implementation. If you need to link additional tables in autopopulate relationships, please contact your PeopleFluent Representative. From the Autopopulate tab, you can view an autopopulate relationship and modify an autopopulate value.
