Need to add and save, or save and keep working for mobile, to use juiced signatures

Does anyone used Juiced signatures on mobile? Great add-on, but with big limitation that I am trying to come up with a creative work around.

In order to sign, you must first save the record. This is problematic in my case scenario. I am trying to create a 'signature sheet'. So, people are sitting around a table - one person clicks 'add signature', signs, then passes to the next person who adds signature, and so on. This is for use on a mobile device.

The issue: Once you click add signature (creating a child record with the signature fields), you must save. Once you save, it kicks you back to the parent. Even if I remove the & "&z=" & Rurl(), somehow on mobile it still kicks you back to the parent (how?!). Even if I was able to save, now I need to create buttons to return you to the parent or create another signature record (but the save and new button is now gone....).

I tried a rich text button for save and keep working, but this only seems to work on desktop, not mobile.

Has anyone run into this case and found a creative solution?

  • @Mike Tamoush, here is a post that details a workaround for this by utilizing a button with API_AddRecord to first add a record (so the Record ID# exists) and then redirect to edit the record. Using this button to add new records will prevent you from needing to save the record before using the Juiced signature add-on because the record will have a Record ID# as soon as you click the button.

    API_AddRecord then open in Edit

  • Not sure of a solution. I agree mobile lacks in functionality as compared to desktop. Grid edit is not currently possible on mobile. Hopefully this is a priority for Quick Base to improve functionality.

      Adam, 

      Are you a coder by any chance? I have close to a solution (got some code from Kirk Trachy). It allows a record to be created and 'saved' (it already has a record ID). However, only can create new records, not new children. I'm trying to see if there is a way to launch it from a parent and have it also pass the related parent Record ID down....but I don't code. I just have the code that we could manipulate...

        I am willing to take a look at it Mike.
