What is a Field Update in Zoho People?

1. Create the necessary field updates for a form under the Automation > Actions section of the service and associate them to a workflow.
   
2. Whenever a Workflow trigger event occurs, the field is updated automatically with the defined values.

Set up Field Updates

2. Click Add Field Update.
   
3. Select the Form in which you would like to automatically update field based on workflow trigger actions.
   
4. Enter a Field Update name and description.
   
   
5. In the Field Update selection section:
   
1. Select the field to be updated. This field can be from the source form, or any other lookup from the selected form.
   
2. Enter the custom value to be updated, or select a field from the source form or any related lookup which has to be updated in the above selected field.
