Accessing field values from another entity via an advanced search select

Hi,

I've been tasked by my manager to see if it is possible to pull information from a quote into an opportunity.

At the moment within our test system, I managed to get an advanced search select to look at the quotes that were created from a opportunity, I've been trying for a while to pull certain values from the selected quote to populate opportunity fields, the reason behind this is to have our users have a quick "summary" of a quote that will most likely to convert into an order.

I'm familiar with accessing information across entities with CRM.GetContextInfo("entity","field name") but only when it's been a 1:many relationship for example, quotes getting information from the opportunity as in our CRM one opportunity can have many quotes but not the other way round.

We're hoping this can be done, I've tried different ways of approaching it but no luck,

Any help on this would be amazing,

Thanks in advance,

Lee

    Hi Daniel,

    Thank you for replying to my post.

    I think the best method for us would be using the client side api to get the data, I've tried using CRM.GetContextInfo but no luck with it, if you have any suggestions on the script that would be needed, that would be fantastic!

    It's amazing to see what can be achieved with customising CRM, I'm constantly learn new little tricks to get the system to work as our users like to use it.

    Thanks once again Daniel,
