    Adding Hyperlinks to the Job Name field

    We are trying to find an easy work around for adding hyperlinks to the "Job Name" field. Just copying and pasting a website URL will only leave the text in the job name but no link. Adding html coding <a href=""></a> does not fix this issue. Any help or information on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello,
        You can create a field to store hyperlinks that you can use to have hyperlinks to websites.  The field will have a button beside the URL to click and it will take you to a webpage.  
        Here is how you can do it.  You will need to have copied the screen (Here it would be FieldServices_AddEditWorkOrder) Also, you would need a new text field to the table.  In the screen designer, drag the target text field onto the screen.   Click 'Edit' on the text box to open the wizard.  Go to Step 2 of 4:Textbox Actions.  Select 'Button Click', select the action 'Load Web Page' and click Add Action.


      For the action choose a target in the drop down.  Select 'Value From Screen' and choose the text box field that will house the URL.  Click Next and Publish.


    There now should be a button beside the textbox (...) that you can click to activate the hyperlink.
