Partial Field Recognition

Question

I'm creating a document that requires the social security number of an employee. I'm using the special format category in the form field that's specific to the social security number. On another portion of the PDF, there is a field that requires only the last 4 numbers of the SS#. Can I create a field that pulls the numbers from the first field?

Sure, that's possible. Let's say the first field is called "SSN". You can use this code as the custom calculation script of the second field:

event.value = this.getField("SSN").valueAsString.substr(-4);
