Hi all.
I have a need to open a Jobs list form, then launch a New Item form from another list (Service Request). I need to populate about half a dozen person/people fields in the Service Request new item with names from same type of fields in the Jobs form.
Is there a simple no-code way to do that?
Thanks.

Well you can use a workflow, but workflows can’t check the value of people picker fields. One thing I have done to work around this is create almost duplicate fields for the people picker fields in the list. I hide those duplicate fields. I then use the workflow to first set the duplicate fields to the value of the people picker field, but use string as the data type. When I have my workflow check to see if the people picker field is populated, I actually have it check the corresponding duplicate field. Then I use the workflow to set the people picker field in one list to the corresponding people pickeer field in the source list.
