Hello
How to appear an employee name instead of id in reports to
You could create a custom field called reports_to_name
with Fetch From
set as reports_to.full_name
and add that to list view instead of reports_to
.
From your image, make sure Fetch From is empty.
Create a custom script
Select Employee as doctype and paste this script:
cur_frm.add_fetch("reports_to","employee_name","reports_to_name");
Save the script.
Now go to the Employee master, and choose the Reports to. The reports_to_name field should populate the full name.
Let me know if it works!
This works. But, when I clear the “Reports To” field, this custom field remains populated with the earlier value. How do I clear it.
