Display dynamic field labels

Field labels are used to tell users what information should be entered in a field, or what information is in a field. The nature of information may change slightly depending on information that was entered by the user. You can configure field labels to change based on other data.

Example

A user recording package dimensions may use different units to record the dimensions. Prior to taking measurements, the user selects the unit of measure to be used. After selecting the units, the user is reminded of the appropriate unit of measure by the calculated field label.
