Answer #1: Part of the challenge is we don't know whether you added the custom fields to the MR or the MRLINE.  There are still a number of built-in crossover fields, but I'm assuming you've created your own fields.   The answer is simple if it MRLINE to PRLINE as you can simply create a crossover domain, but that requires you register it to the PRLINE.MRNUM​ field.

If you don't want to do the you will need to create an automation script.  This is a better way as you can also solve the issue that the PR does not have the MRNUM, only the PRLINE has the MRNUM and can easily traverse from the PRLINE to the PR to post data from the MR.  Do you need help with that?

Answer#2: No, but I'd like to explore what is the issue that has caused you to ask? What could be the scenarios that someone outside the "chain of command" needs to see you MR?  Traditionally, the MR, if needing approval is sent to your line manager as a sanity check, anything higher should be in terms of DOA should be dealt within the PR/PO.  Is it that it's still awaiting approval and should escalated?

Custom field is on PR table not PRLINE, and I need to use either custom field on MR or existing fields like MRLA1 so when user submit MR this information will pass to created PR. 

There is one section (5 people) only that need to sanity check all requests before PR is created, for all trades. In reality their supervisors or managers will not check these. That one group need to be able to make adjustments, corrections to MR before its approved. 

I will try to handle this with MR Workflow maybe.
