What is the best approach (filter, action, frontEnd Callback, etc...) to set a default value to a cell, on inserting a new row to a table, based on another cell value, in example:
I select "Add New", select the customer name in the first cell (these customer names comes from a foreign table), and based on the customer selected (id), I search for some value in another table and set a default value for the next cell in the form.
Unfortunately there is no callback or hook to use in this case. This is not easy as it looks like and it require a lot of code changing for the plugin. We had the same request just for the filtering ( cascade filtering) and the best solution was to develop an Add-on.
This is only working for the filtering option but not in the Edit modal.
So unfortunately I can not give you any guide where to look because something like this requires a lot of code changing.

It's a cascade value definition.
Thanks.
