I want to see if this posts, and if someone replies, do i get notified.

Hi! Has anyone used this successfully? Wondering if it is worth the effort to set up. Currently Better Impact is being used for volunteer management, but QuickBase is used for almost everything else. 

I need to update the email associated with this account (for posting in the community) not specifically in our quickbase realm. I went to my profile settings and the only option I have is to change my user name. How do I update the email address?

I came here to sign up for some of the monthly events and discovered the link to the Website is no longer available from here. I am looking at the Events drop down in the header bar, all I see are Empower and Qrew Events. Luckily Ben left a breadcrumb in the calendar comments which I have pasted below.Am I missing something?https://www.quickbase.com/events

Hello All,I have a table A as the parent table and then I have the table b as the data which is a sync table that gets updated every month.  I am trying to figure out how to snapshot a summary report and keep the data from changing.  I am doing an analysis of some data and I want to keep that data the same when I come back to it a months from now.  Table b is the summary report that I am trying to snapshot at the time I create the record in table A. Looking for any good ideas on how to do that? ThanksJen

When a parent record is added, and a specific "issue type" is selected from the drop down list is there a way to require a task record to be created. The add task is a linked table within the parent record. 

Is it possible to run a table Refresh/Sync, for a Google Drive Connected Table,  within a pipeline?  I want to refresh a table at a specific scheduled time and then run a Table to Table import job.  The refresh scheduling on the connected table is not specific enough since it is anytime within a one hour period. Thank you in advance for any help that you can provide.------------------------------Christine Carpentier------------------------------

I am trying to create a dynamic report that will stay updated with our top 25 clients based on their ACV. I have a checkbox field on each account labeled 'Top 25'. My goal is to have this automatically updated based on each account’s ACV. Ideally this proccess would:  Look at all eligible AccountsRank them by ACV from highest to lowestIdentify only the top 25Check the Top 25 checkbox for those AccountsUncheck Accounts that fall out of the Top 25Recalculate this automatically on a schedule The main issue I'm having is the Search Records step lets me set a record limit of 25 without giving me an option to sort the results by ACV. Because of that, I’m concerned that limiting the search to 25 records would not necessarily return the 25 highest ACV accounts. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

Is it possible in QuickBase to convert different currencies to USD using today's exchange rate?I have a field where users enter costs in different currencies, but want these costs to be converted to USD so i can compare costs. I know i can do that by create another numeric field and set us a formula with another text field contains all the currencies and then identify all the foreign currencies values against USD, but this needs to be updated regularly as the exchange rates change. Any function in QB to resolve this and convert currencies to USD based on today's rate. 

Hello,I have a fairly simple question. I'm currently learning how to use Solutions API / ALM. My plan is to create a copy of one of my applications and then use that copy to test creating and deploying solutions in it.As shown in the screenshot I've attached, before I create the copy application, I'm prompted to select options for my Cross-App Relationships. I just want to confirm that the option "Remove Cross-App Relationship" is the option that will not interfere with the original app(s). My goal is to create a copy of an app that is pretty much disconnected to other app(s), so I can rest assured nothing will be affected once I start testing things in the copied app.Please confirm. Thanks in advance! 

Can anyone suggest how I can create an unknown number of child records? Sometimes the user might need 10, 50, 200 or any number in that range. I would like the user to have the option to enter this # in a field and click a button to trigger the process. I thought I could use a pipeline loop but I don't see a way to run the loop a number of times based on a field value. My goal is to populate the table shown below, with no data, allowing the user to quickly input the data right on this form without adding/opening/editing each individual record. I'm happy to provide more details or take a different approach.Thanks

I have a Multi-select Text field on my Projects table called Project Products. A project can have multiple products, for example:Product A; Product B; Product CI’m trying to build a report that groups/counts by each individual product, but when I group by the multi-select field, Quickbase groups by the entire combination of selected values instead.For example, I’m getting groups like:Product A; Product BProduct AProduct B; Product CInstead, I want the report to display:Product A — 2 projectsProduct B — 2 projectsProduct C — 1 projectIs there a way to “explode” or separate the values from a Multi-select Text field so each individual product can be grouped and counted within one report?

What is wrong with this formula where the field in brackets is a URL field."<a href='" & "'><img src=\"[Photo Exterior Front from website]\"></a>"As is, I am not getting an image but when I click on the url in the url field I do get an image. 

Hello everyone,  One of my commitments this year has been to build a stronger connection with amazing Qrew members, and I’ve been looking forward to writing this post today.   First of all, I want to thank everyone who was able to attend Empower 26 in May for spending their time with us. It was a pleasure to see you all and to speak with so many of you. Thank you also to those of you who joined us online – I hope we can see one another in person soon! It was another reminder of just how creative, inventive, and smart Qrew members are.  During my speech at Empower (which you can watch here), I talked a lot about keeping promises. I think we’ve done a good job in the last year or so following through on commitments we made and focusing more on our customers. But there’s still plenty of work to do, and I can’t wait to take it on.  As part of my commitment to im

Hello all, does anyone if it's possible/how to dynamically hide/show reports and other information in document templates? I have a case where certain reports are needed for one common type of report, while other types of reports I need to generate use different reports. At the moment any time I want to include/exclude data for a report I would have to make an entirely new document template, and then manage that going forward. All help is appreciated, thanks!
