Hi Brian - I don't seem to be able to override the forms usage at the role level.
Form2: https://cbs.quickbase.com/db/bqifgyepk?a=DFormProps&dfid=2&tab=e
Form10: https://cbs.quickbase.com/db/bqifgyepk?a=DFormProps&dfid=10&tab=e
URL for 2: URLRoot() & "db/" & [_DBID_INVENTORY_ADJUSTMENTS] & "?a=API_GenAddRecordForm&_fid_2=" & URLEncode ([Record ID#])& "&z=" & Rurl()
URL for 10: URLRoot() & "db/" & [_DBID_INVENTORY_ADJUSTMENTS] & "?a=API_GenAddRecordForm&_fid_10=" & URLEncode ([Record ID#])& "&z=" & Rurl()
But they both take me to Form 2 which is the role setting.
Any suggestions?
