Using a field to redirect records to a custom form?
Is there a way, possibly using image onload, to cause a record to be viewed/edited in a custom form based on the condition of a field in the record?
Use case:
I want the records in my projects table to represent either projects or project requests depending on the selected content ("Initiating") in a multiple choice field called 'Phase'. I could implement both views of the data (project and request) with form rules, but the project form already has a ton of rules related to various workflows. It would be much cleaner to implement the request view in it's own form - which I have done.
Requests are created using a custom "Create Project Request" button on the Homepage or via the Project Requests report. There are circumstances, though, where these records will open using the default "Projects" form. I want to stop that from happening. records should always use the request form until their Phase is set to something other than "Initiating".
