The Column Data widget is designed to display data from another record in a source. It differs from the widget as it saves a copy of the data in the widget for quick loading. This widget is particularly useful for displaying text-type data, and it can be automatically updated to reflect changes in the source.
Stock checkout: Display the same unit as the stock using the Column Data widget.
To enable the widget's functionality, it requires the provision of options. Each option comprises the following fields:
Source column: Select one of the ForeignKey columns to define the data source.
Field: Choose the field you want to display.
Stop condition: The formula will stop calculation when the condition is met. It must return a true or false value. This field does not support other column data, you can only use the variable data to reference the current record data.
