Hello,

I am wondering if it is possible to populate a CDT in the Input tab and then populate one field in that CDT in the Output tab.

For example: Let's say I have a CDT called Employee and I use a query rule to populate the employee name in Input. In output I want to populate Employee.Nickname using an expression. How can I do this?...

A common mistake I see is populating the inputs at the parent level and the outputs at the individual attribute level. This creates a race condition. You must either populate the entire CDT from ac!myCTD to pv!myCDT (typically on the inputs) or populate the pieces: ac!myCDT.name to pv!myCDT.name which can be on inputs or outputs.
