Link to Original Record After Copy
I am wondering if it is possible to add a link to a copied record back to the original record? Here is what is happening...I currently have a copy record button that is working as expected. See code...

Also, what do you mean by "scalar field"?

Qrew LegendThe [Budget Item ID#] field should be a numeric field type, not a formula numeric field. What type is is?
Scalar is just a fancy word that I have heard Quickbase staff use, it just means a data entry field which is not a formula or a lookup field.

- Yes the [Budget Item ID#] is Numeric. It is also a key field if that matters.

------------------------------- MarkShnier__YouForm rules don't like to offer up the Record ID# field for reasons unknown. Just make a new field called [Budget ID# mirror] with a formula of [Budget ID#]
Then use that in the form rule to act as a source to the [Original Budget ID#] field.

------------------------------- I created the mirror formula field and my current form rule looks like the below.
I don't see the option to "Copy" as an action. Isn't the [Budget Item ID#] field going to change everytime I save a new record? How do I get it to point back to the original record that was used for the copy?
