Auto populating 'quick Create' forms in activities sub panels

When ‘quick Creating’ a meeting in a given modules ‘Activities’ subpanel, the ‘related to’ and ‘assigned to’ fields are already populated, but how do i populate the other fields?

Do i need to create different quick create forms for each module?

Hi,
You need to do some custom coding for this… By default this is not possible.
You can engage any developer if you are not a programmer.
Thanks

Thanks, i realise it needs some coding, i’m just not sure how to go about it.

I 'm thinking i need to override the quick create button and use a different quick create template depending on the parent module?

There is some help in this post :
