Retrieve Value from Screen
Solution No. 117
Takes a value from the specified field in the specified table and loads it either into an Action Result variable, which can then be used in subsequent actions, or placed into a value on the screen.
 
So Where Would We Use It?
You are just starting to enter in some new customer information. You begin to enter the basics, such as company name and contact name. To make life a little easier for yourself, you recently made use of the Retrieve Value from Screen action. Now once you?re done entering the last name of the contact, the action retrieves those values to populate the billing area for you. You no longer have the tedious task of re-entering the same data and more importantly, you avoid silly data entry errors.
