Auto-fill additional values from select2 on row create

bacalov

Hi,
I'm getting detailed information about a product through select2 ajax call (like product package, minPrice, maxQty)
Is there any way fill some of these values directly when creating new record, beside ID - this way I won't be forced to make another DB call to get these values again.

Thank's a lot.

So basically you are looking to copy the information from one table to another rather than using a left join - is that correct?

One option might be to use dependent() (or just a regular change event on the Select2 element) - when the value changes you could use the field().val() method to update the values of the other fields based on the item selected?

Thank's Allan for the suggestions/direction,

Finally figured out...
Basically, I'm autofilling the Create fields with Select2 response values, like this:
editor.set({
field1: e.params.args.data.selectField1,
field2: e.params.args.data.selectField2
});

Thank's again.
