Change label field based on other field value

Good morning,
in my custom module I have the field ‘ABC’ and when filed ‘XYZ’ values 123 I would like to change ‘ABC’ into ‘DEF’.
Is it possible? if yes, how? I’m unable to find a solution :sob:

thank you

Is the change just for display, in a particular view, or do you mean to change it in the database also?

#3

I must change the label during edit view and detailview. I would like change only the label.

#4

Maybe an override of the detail view class, like this one?

–> Calculate age from birthdate: override detail view example

And possibly you can work out something similar for edit view…

#5

I forgot… For detailview, probably it can be a solution, but my problem is during editview: when i change the value for field ‘XYZ’ the lable of first field must change.

#6

That sounds like you need to inject some Javascript to react to the change event and do those changes…

#7

Yes, i have done this a few times, All you need is add JS to your Edit/Detail view and do the on change Text Change. Its pure JS nothing complicated or SuiteCRM related.
