QuestionQ257

Extend the user experience

You are building a model-driven app that uses data from two custom tables. The tables have a parent-child relationship, and the parent record form includes a subgrid that displays the child records.

When a new child record is created from the parent form, data must automatically populate the child record form to reduce data-entry errors.

You need to implement the solution.

What should you do?

  • A Use a Power Automate flow to read data from the parent record and update the child record upon creation.
  • B Map table columns from the parent record to the child record.
  • C Create a business rule that sets the default values on the child record fields to values from the parent record.
  • D Include a quick view form on the child record showing the data from the parent record.
Explanation

Dataverse column mapping on a one-to-many or many-to-one table relationship sets default values for a new related child record when it is created in the context of its parent, such as by using the child-record subgrid on the parent form. This copies the mapped parent values into the child form before the record is saved.
