Is is possible to update child records when a parent record status changes?
We're using Quickbase for keeping track of our code releases, when development on all components of a build is complete they go through a round of testing.
If they all pass they're released to a clean testing environment for internal testing, assuming they all pass again they're released to a user acceptance testing environment and retested, assuming they all pass again, they're released to live.
If they fail at any point, they go back to development and start the process from scratch.
At the moment we have a master table, Builds, and a child table Components, the tables are connected with a one-many relationship.
In the child Components table we have a "Testing Status" field. Once all Components have a Testing Status of Passed a formula field in Builds flags that the Build is ready to move to the next environment.
In the parent Builds table we have an "Environment" field.
What I would like is that when the Environment field is updated, all child records of that build will have their Testing Status reset to pending, but I can't figure out how to do this. Does anyone have any ideas?
