COPY BUTTON

I think you are looking for the CopyMasterDetail functionality which allows you to create a new record in a table from an existing record.  If you go to the HOME page and click on SETTINGS; then APP MANGEMENT and locate the Copy master & detail records in the "Manage App Contents" section on that page, it will walk you through setting up a button to do this.  You can also find help here: About Copy Master and Detail Records

About Copy Master and Detail Records You can add a button to your application that users can click to copy or import records and the relationships between them. Use the Copy Master and Detail Records option to add a Formula- URL field that displays as a button in a specified table that either: Copies a master record and its detail records.

It is not clear from your question whether you are trying to create the new job with a field-value pre-programmed with a default-value; or a specific one from another record.

It would be helpful if you could elaborate on your question some more.
