Answer 1

You can use few approaches for implementing autopopulation field functionality:

• set up default values for your fields (note that if the default values are dynamic, e.g. val = f(x,y), then x,y must come from the running user or environment, not from other opportunity fields);
• create Visualforce page with custom Apex controller where to override of the Opportunity.New button;
• use workflows of triggers on save new record event.
