In form building, how can I auto populate data in a table?

I'm trying to create a more efficient travel authorization process, and I'm stuck on how to accomplish auto-populating per diem in a table based on the employee's input dates. Can you please help?

Hi Alshana,

Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Are you trying to autopopulate the Departure Date field to the Date column on your Input Table? If so, you can use a conditional logic to do so. Here's how:

1. In Form Builder, click on Settings in the orange navigation bar at the top of the page.
2. Select Conditions in the menu on the left side of the page and click on Add Conditions and choose Update/Calculate Field.
   
   
   
3. Set up the condition as shown below and click on Save.
   
   

Here's the result:

We also have a guide on How to Insert Text or Calculation Into a Field Conditionally that you can check out.

Give it a try and reach out again if you have any other questions.

Thank you this did help!
