V11 "Fetch From" on field

Curious how to use the new “Fetch From” field in v11… anyone know how?

For instance, in this case… I want to set the bill_date automatically to the ship_date from the sales/purchase order. I’d like to have it automatically set but still be able to change it during the process of entering the purchase invoice. Make sense?

Thanks!

I assume you have a link field named sales_order in the DocType you’re editing.
I further assume Sales Order has a field named ship_date.

Then you can put sales_order.ship_date inside Fetch From. It will automatically pull the ship_date from Sales Order. (On some versions you’ll have to hit save to trigger the pulling.)
