need to show the case owner manager

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I want to be able to show the case owner manger in a field on the case main form. 

the case owner is a system user and in the user entity each user can be assigned a manager. so the data exist in the user entity, but what I want is to show the manager name in the case form, and it should change dynamically every time the case owner changes.

    Hi

    These following options would help you to achieve this  functionality

    1. Create a User Quick view from and display the same on Case form

    2. You can use create a custom lookup field of user and place this field on Case form & make it read only, Write a real time workflow to update the Manager value in this custom lookup field on change of Owner field.
