prepopulation
Filling in advance
Prepopulation is the act of filling in data or fields before a user encounters them.
Forms prepopulate with known information—your name, address, previous answers—so you don't have to enter everything from scratch.
The system handles prepopulation of customer details from their account profile.
The practice saves time but raises privacy questions about what's already known.
