Is it possible to use the results of a user typeahead field on a task form, to pull in the user's email address and phone number using a calculated field on the task report?

Hi @omahaomaha 

 

e.g. if the USER typeahead is called "userTA" you can reference built-in fields in a calculated field: 

{DE:userTA:name}
{DE:userTA:emailAddr}

Thanks Sven, what if the email address is created field not native to WF? Would it be {DE:userTA:name}.{DE:Contact Email}?

Hi @omahaomaha 
I think you're currently limited to built-in fields. 

But to try custom fields on the user: 
{DE:userTA:name} is a string: the name - so it won't have the custom field you want
You can try {DE:userTA:Contact Email}  

Let me know
