    Hello!

    i was wondering how I can prepopulate the cost from the Myproducts list from one form to another?

    Background is...

    I use form 1 to take their orders and show their estimate by using the MyProducts list. Once they submit the form, it goes to me for review and approval. Once I approve it, itll auto send them an email to another form that will take their payment in. I wanted to prepopulate the estimate price from form 1 to form 2. But I dont see any form fields for Myproducts through the approval workflow chart, it does allow me to prepopulate name, address phone, etc.

    I went to form 2's publish settings and through there I saw the prefill option. I did see MyProducts form field and prepopulated a short text within the form with it, but when i try the form, it doesnt populate...

    Hello Xotristo,

    If I understand correctly, you were using the method described from the user guide : Prepopulating Fields to Your Jotform via URL Parameters

    Currently, this feature does not include the My Products (Product List field), so it will not work in your form. You can use for the other regular fields but not the payment or product list field.

    We can send a feature request but we cannot provide you any time frame as to when this will be available.

    Let us know if you want to proceed.
