This works when I add the following script to the Custom Calculation in the 'JobType' text field, I type Regular in my 'Status' Text Field the number 1 shows up in 'Job Type' text field.
The problem is I also need to be able to type Temp so the number 2 shows up, but when I try to add it and and I type Regular in the 'Status' field 2 shows up in 'Job Type', not 1. I've tried everything and it's probably so simple 
var a ="";
if (this.getField("Status").value == "Regular"){
a="1";
}
event.value = a;

Use this code:
var a ="";
if (this.getField("Status").value == "Regular"){
a="1";
} else if (this.getField("Status").value == "Temp"){
a="2";
}
event.value = a;

If an employee picks Tracey from the "Employee List" and I'm a regular employee it will auto populate
'Regular' to "PayTypeDesc Job1Emp1",
but then I pick an Acting Rate from the drop down called "Acting Rate Job1Emp1" it will change from
'Regular' to 'Acting' in "PayTypeDesc Job1Emp1" and populate "Type Job1Emp1", "Step Job1Emp1",
If a employee picks Sean from the from the "Employee List" drop down and he's an Auxiliary it will auto populate
'Auxiliary' to "PayTypeDesc Job1Emp2",
but then he would also pick an Acting Rate from the drop down called "Acting Rate Job1Emp2" but it would stay as 'Auxiliary' and still populate "Type Job1Emp1", "Step Job1Emp1"
Sorry, I know it's confusing and I'm sure there needs to be an 'else' in there somewhere, I just don't know where or how I could do this
