How to set a field equal to another field in SugarBPM

Yury Voloshin

I'm trying to set up a SugarBPM process that will be integrated with a Customer Journey. The first task in the Customer Journey calls for assigning an Engineer to an Opportunity. The several subsequent tasks have to be assigned to the Engineer above. I'm trying to automate this, so that when the first task is completed and an Engineer is assigned to an Opportunity, the Engineer will be automatically set as the Assigned-To user of subsequent tasks. In order to do this, I'd need to set the Assigned-To user of a Task equal to the Assigned Engineer of a related Opportunity. But I don't see an option in SugarBPM to set a field equal to the value of a different field. Is there really no way to do this in BPM, or am I missing something? If this is impossible in BPM, then I'll have to set up a custom logic hook.

    Hi ,

    Patrick's solution still works great if you are not hosted in SugarCloud and can access your database directly. If you are on SugarCloud or prefer not to make direct database edits, our new offering,    Upsert BPM Essentials , introduces a new custom action to set the assigned user of a record dynamically based on any user field from the target or related module - all from the SugarBPM UI! You choose the module and associated user field (stock user fields, custom relationships, and custom relate fields are all supported), and you have the added benefit of choosing whether to define who to assign as a backup in the event that user is unavailable.

    Please let me know if you have any questions on how Upsert BPM Essentials can help meet this need!
