<u>'''General Description'''</u>

Copies one or more field values from an [[External|external]] entity to the current [[Entity|entity]]. This field is used in conjunction with the '''Display Only External Entity''' field.

The purpose of the field is to carry forward details of a related external [[Entity|entity]] record to a new entity such as a level 1 or level 2 UTA entity.

The [[User|user]] has the ability to overwrite the value or retrieve the value multiple times.

<u>'''Notes'''</u>

This example is taken from a '''Courier''' application. The pick up and delivery addresses for the job need to default to the address of the company ordering the courier.

The customer field (#161926) is set to a '''Lookup - External Entity Field'''.

Two '''External Entity Detail''' fields use this field ID to reference the address, Address 2 and city fields in the underlying company record.

An additional '''External Entity Details''' field is used to display an account '''Note''' field (a [[Custom Field|custom field]] associated with the company record).

If necessary each of these values can be overwritten once the record is saved.
