    copying infopath fields to send data to sharepoint list

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

     http://blogs.msdn.com/b/infopath/archive/2007/03/26/submitting-to-a-sharepoint-list.aspx?PageIndex=3#comments

    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc162745%28v=office.12%29.aspx

    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!

    Hi,

    You might want to try the qRules CopyTable command and see if this is what you're looking for. This command allows you to copy data from a source table to a destination table in your form. Here's a video that demonstrates how it works along with some of the most commonly used qRules commands.

    You can also configure your SharePoint list submit using qRules' SubmitToSharePointList command which allows you to submit new list items and/or update existing ones.

    Feel free to post if you have any questions.

    Best Regards,
