- RichardFeuersteQrew MemberNew form each time or just another form you already have populated with saved data?
- SarthakSubudhiQrew MemberIt will be a new form each time in the second table. Though, it should contain values from 4 fields from the 1st form which need to automatically populate 2nd form when button is clicked . Basically, the new form belongs to a table which is a child table of the table containing the 1st form.
- RichardFeuersteQrew MemberI don�t think I�m making my self clear. Why is this a new form? Why is it not a form in the child table already built to accept these related fields and new input?. When I bring data from a parent into a child table for continuing input I have a form already built that I reference to in my api.
I now use the quickbase actions to create new projects and estimates with related items already injected when I create a new property automatically.
By preparing forms in each table and utilizing redirects you can end the process in a from in edit mode 5 tables deep. - QuickBaseCoachDQrew CaptainSarthak,
If suggest that you edit the Advanced Properties of the first table and set the checkbox to save Parent automatically when a child Record is added.
Then, since this is a child Record you are adding, just make lookup fields down to the child Record and they will automatically be there when you create the child Record.
