I've ran through and understand the tutorials on how to use my form to write entries to a list from here:

But I want to go one step further.
Basically in these tutorials the user is entering in the information and then submitting it. I want to know how I can populate these fields from other fields that the user already has filled out. This this I mean I have the contact selector used to help fill out the department, job title, phone number, etc. this is automatically populated from the people picker. I can't have the user re-enter this data into fields to submit so I want to copy the info in these fields and have them be the populated automatically in the repeating section to submit data. Any ideas or help? Thanks!
