Hello Everyone!

I'm New to Forms (But have a lot of experience with Workflows)! My company just brought Forms and I started to figure out this morning.

List A is a List owned by Group A - This list contains a number of fields. One of the Fields is "Approved by Group B"
List B is a List owned By Group B - This list stores data used to Approve Items from List A. This list has a Field "Approved"

Note: These lists live in two different sites example

https://sharepoint.com/sites/Group A/List A

https://sharepoint.com/sites/Group B/List B

Can we Update "Approved by Group B" in List A with the data from the "Approved" field in List B?

Can we also display fields from List B in the form from List A?

Thanks

Melissa

Hello,

To display data from a different list than the one the form is residing on then you'll use the List Lookup control or the calculated fields control (using a lookup function).

To Update data into a different list, you will want to continue utilizing workflows to carry out that functionality.

Hopefully these pointers get you looking in the right direction!

Thanks,

Mike
