Yep, snapshot fields to the rescue! Native easy peasy feature.

- JamesTrory7 years agoQrew Assistant CaptainI've never used snapshot before but have heard of it. Interesting. I realize there is something that complicates things though....
What if I have a field that is not a lookup but is just a regular field. How could I snapshot that as well? - QuickBaseCoachD7 years agoQrew CaptainTypically you limit editing if specific field in a form using Dynamic Form rules.
Alternatively you can use Role permissions of you want to prevent editing of the record entirely under certain conditions. - QuickBaseCoachD7 years agoQrew Captainnp
Change the name of the [Day Rate] field to be called [Day Rate (lookup)]
Then make a new field called [Day Rate] and set that to be a snapshot field of the [Date Rate (lookup)] field.
ie the snapshot field is a separate field from the lookup field.
