I am in SharePoint 2016. Have a Nintex form that has a dropdown control and a date control. Dropdown = Request

Date: TargetDate

 

Both Request and TargetDate are fields in a SharePoint list. I want Target Date to populate based on the entry of the dropdown. No selection means blank date.

 

What is the simplest way to accomplish this: Lookup, workflow, or custom JavaScript? Kindly send me some details. Thank you.

Hi guru2000.
I'm new to sharepoint but I think the best way to do this would be to implement it within your workflow and set a rule to check if there's a selection within your dropdown and to then populate your output field(TargetDate). Hopefully this is useful.
