1 Introduction

When using a form in bxp software (bxp), there are times you will need to dynamically replace content. This most often seen in the external and intra communications processes used in an outcome.


For example, you wish your outcome to send a text message that dynamically pulls information from the current record and puts it into the body of the message.


This is possible through the -- notation and using field mapping.

2 Worked example

Say for example our Form Id is 6. We use the field mapping table to figure out what field we want to replace.

In this case, let's say we want the customers First Name, which is in field strCDA_6_field_0_1
