- MarkMark3Qrew MemberOK, that worked! I feel like an idiot. So basically I was making it more complicated with the hide actions and that was breaking things. You are a rockstar! Seriously, I've read so many of your posts and your help is tremendous.
- QuickBaseCoachDQrew CaptainYour were just overthinking it. :)
- MarkMark3Qrew MemberIndeed! You are like the QB Jedi Master. I should've slowed down and re-read your post like you said. The answer was in there all the time! I was adding unnecessary info to it, causing my problems. Many thanks.
- ShankarRaviQrew CadetHi Coach,
I have a form and on that form based on lookup field need to show various sections. I need to write dynamic rules to show sections. As we know that we can not use derivative/lookup fields more than 20 times. If we use then we would get popup as below:
Can you please suggest solution for this?
Regards,
Ravi Shankar - QuickBaseCoachDQrew CaptainWe, that limit is a real limit.
The alternatives are to combine situations where you use multiple "Derived" fields in a rule where you could have 1 derived field. For example combine two formula fields into one formula field and then change the rule to just use that 1 field, thus saving 1 of your precious 20 rules.
Also, note that if you are using a lookup field in a rule (e.g. [Customer name] , and you could instead use the field [Related Customer], that is not a derived field as it is not a lookup nor a formula field.
Other than that, post a request in User Voice and then solicit for votes on the forum to allow more that 20 derived fields being used in forms. That limit has been there a very long time, and browsers and computers are stronger now.- ShankarRaviQrew CadetThanks Coach for your precious suggestion!!!
