    Show a field in multiple panel tabs breaks?

    Hi guys,

    I have a quick layout question. I searched the forum but could not find a similar case.

    Is it possible to display the same field in multiple panel tab breaks on the Detail view?

    For example, I have a field called `name`, and I would like to show it both in a panel called `Relationships` and another panel called `Settlement and Payment`. The goal is purely UX, to have the same data visible in different contextual sections without duplicating the field itself.

    Is this achievable through the Layout Manager, or does any other way exist to achieve this?

    If this is not supported out of the box, are there any recommended workarounds or customisation approaches for this use case?

    Any guidance is very welcome.
    Thanks a lot for your help!

    you could create as many "name" fields as you want, copiy the value from the original name field and set a copy for avery tab, where you would need it to be displayed.

      Hi shalmaxb!
      Thanks for the feedback!

      But indeed, that would be "Duplicating the field": copying the data from one section to another, setting more automations or formulas to keep it in sync, extra complexity not needed for something as simple, and extra data to manage that I would prefer to avoid. This is more of a visual thing.

      Thanks!

    Maybe there would be a way by coding. You can see in the Layout manager, that you can display the same field in different layouts.Perhaps trying to achieve something like that.
    Another possibility would be to put these field, that you need to be displayed together with several different fieldsets (organized for example in different tabs), to put these "common" fields in its own panel and dispplay it weherever you need it to be displayed by condition in the Layout Manager.

      It's not possible, technically there must be only one same field on the form.
      If you find EspoCRM good, we would greatly appreciate if you could give the project a star on GitHub. We believe our work truly deserves more recognition. Thanks.
