Hi:

I have a master table for Work Orders.  When a work order is complete, and an invoice is generated, I want to create an entry in a related receivables table [Date Invoiced].

What would be the best way to accomplish?

Thank you,

Dirk

I would suggest using Automations:

Online Hlep for Automations

For the trigger, you would want "when data changes".

You can specify the fields that changed, and the filter condition for the trigger to fire - such as:
[Status] = "Complete] for the Work Order
AND
[# of Invoices] > 0

Then the action would be something like:

- Add a record in the Receivables table
- with [Date Invoiced] = [Date of Last Invoice]  (or something similar)
