As Podio users, we're constantly struggling to navigate and deal with sometimes difficult user experience. There is so much automation...but this automation often requires extra fields and back end error checking/ data validation. This really cool hack helps to resolve these issues by pre-populating Podio's native web forms. You get the best of both worlds: The attractive, simple interface of a web form + an intelligently pre-populated form based on related fields. Enjoy!

Sample Calculation:

@Deal Unique ID (Hidden)
"[CREATE APPT](https://podio.com/webforms/24610797/1...[link-to-sales-pipeline-2]="+@Item ID+")"
