Not returning to parent record

Question

I have a parent table for POs and the button that adds a child record (Acct charge). But I can't get it to return to the PO record after I click "save & close" on the new acct charge record. What am I missing? This is my code:

URLRoot() & "db/bncigsm2t?a=API_GenAddRecordForm&_fid_3=" & URLEncode ([Record ID#]) &"&dfid=10" & "&z=" & Rurl()

So this part here&nbsp;&amp;_fid_3=" &amp; URLEncode ([Record ID#]) says to populate fid 3 with the Record ID# that you are sitting on (ie the Purchase Order Record ID#).&nbsp; But that fid is not the correct one.&nbsp; You need to look at your child table and change that to be the fid of the field for [Related Purchase Order]

I'm not really sure what the problem is.,&nbsp; You may need to go to Support.&nbsp; Can you post the URL that appears when you click the Add Charge button?

I actually was asking if you could copy and paste the actual URL that you see at the top of the screen when you click that button.

Sorry. Time for more coffee.....This is where the url button takes me to add the new record:https://pike.quickbase.com/db/bncigsm2t?a=API_GenAddRecordForm&amp;_fid_21=61&amp;dfid=10&amp;z=etf
