- KingslySamuelQrew CadetDid you try creating a "grid edit" report? That should help solve your problem. Create a new report under "grid edit" category and it should allow your users to edit or enter multiple items at once.
- LindleyCangcoQrew TraineeThanks for your input, Kingsly.
Yes I've tried the grid edit however, this method feels like it's a spreadsheet more than a form because they will have to enter their names multiple times, email address and other "identifier stuff". Maybe I'll do this as a last resort but for now, I'm looking for something similar to google forms that I can just send the link to all employees which doesn't require them to have a QB account or have a knowledge of.
Not sure if I'm making sense here.- QuickBaseCoachDQrew CaptainNote that with grid edit you can easily copy, paste and also "fill down". That last one is very useful as you can enter data on the top row, then click the column heading to highlight the whole column and then and then right click to fill down. Pretty quick imho.
- LindleyCangcoQrew TraineeThanks, I agree, I will go for this as a last resort.
- LindleyCangcoQrew TraineeMy concept is something like this.
- QuickBaseCoachDQrew CaptainWell if you always wanted to enter data that way then have a table for the header information and then a child table of the detail expenses. Then you simply will do a lookup from that header info to the details for the common information.
So the issue is really how you are designing your app.
