Hi there

I am trying to customize Material request as per our requirement. One the requirement is when we select “Requested for” its should display his/her details like Emp code, Cost center etc… I am not sure how we link this in "Material Request’. I had created new Doctype for employee master which keep all record. How do we display in Material Request. Any help will highly appreciated.

Thanks

@Parvez_Akhtar why create a new employee master?

@rmehta On second thought. I think it would best to just modify Employee doctype and link it in Material Request doctype. Also created employee group doctype and added user restriction to this doctype… So only manager can see only his team member… Thanks for following up on this.
