Count days between 2 dates with a twist
I have a Start date and end date I am using the Weekdaysub(end date), (Start Date). but i want to add a IF statement like say to add saturdays to the mix. so if I was to set the date from 5/25/2025 and end on 5/30/2025 but if the saturdays check box was clicked it would also add the saturdays between those dates and return 6 (Monday-Saturday) and if the saturdays was not checked it would return 5 (Monday - Friday)
Delete option
I'm at a loss right now. I have an app and for some reason I'm the only one that can delete from one of the tables. I have checked the roles and they do have the delete option. I have checked the form and it does not have any rules that restrict delete. I as the admin am the only one that can delete. Any ideas on where else I can look. I've looked everywhere that I can think of. FYI: These are the new forms.Running totals for charts
Hi all Want to share my solution on how to create running totals for charts. QB does not support running totals for charts, only summary reports. QB Junkie has a really good solution to create running totals using the query formula but as stated in her video it only works with small data sets and it is really memory intensive. QB has posted a solution to use the report API function to build a new running totals table from a summary report but I found this to be even slower and it does not give the user live updates. I use own table relationships that allows me to chart large datasets quickly and live. Below is an example of this application but I use this for many other data sets that do not use dates so do not get stuck on the dates table step. Create a dates table. I made the key a text field so that i can create the reference field. Record ID is also an option but a bit harder. My key was "<date>-<project no>" Create an own table relationship I use pipeline's Make Request action to create and maintain this table with its key and related field value. This is a Jinja code on Exchange I borrowed so let me know if this is of interest to anyone. It super-fast but again not a requirement. Summarise the values I want into the dates table Create a blank formula field and this will be my running total Summarise the blank formula field i created in step 6 above. I use the own table relationship for this. Go back to the blank formula field in step 6 and write a formula that adds the summarised value in step 5 to the summarised value in step 7. BUT I found this needs to be via an if statement and can't be a simple addition as it fails randomly. Maybe a bug in QB but I found my way around this and its now super reliable. My if looks like this If( Nz([Field in step 5]) + Nz([Field in step 7]) <> 0, Nz([Field in step 5]) + Nz([Field in step 7]), Nz([Field in step 5]) <> 0, Nz([Field in step 5]), Nz([Field in step 7]) <> 0, Nz([Field in step 7])) Thats it. Fast reliable running totals to draw charts! See screenshot belowQuickbase to google calendar pipeline issue
I have a pipe line set that manages my calendar installs to a google calendar. It has 3 pipelines New install are added changes in installs are updated deleted install are deleted. The path flow work great but the dates are not correct. Here is the quickbase calendar Here is the Google Calendar: Start Date and End dates are date/time fields built with the following: Does anyone have any ideas why these dates are distorting by a day?
[Video] How to identify deleted parent records using relationship magic
Hellos, In this simple video we learn how to identify orphaned children records where parent have been deleted OR identify deleted parent records from orphaned children (very mouthful indeed) Generally we create a pipeline which automagically deletes children records whenever a parent is deleted, in this case due to token expiry , we had tonnes of records where this was not happening .

CSV Import - Check Records
I am looking for help in importing a CSV file to a Company table that will check if the Company Name if it exists (text only as complete match) before importing. This pipeline imports company data from a CSV file into a Quickbase table. It checks if a company already exists before creating a new record to prevent duplicates. It fetches the CSV file (all+1300 rows) - This is test file and only has 3 rows I receive the following error Validation error: Incorrect template "{{c.company}}". ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'company' Attched are the pipeline steps Thank you, EricHow to see who hasn't filled out a form
I need to create a form for hours tracking that MUST be completed by Tuesday Morning and want to send a notification for anyone who hasn't filled filled out the form. Is there a way to track not who has filled out the form but who hasn't? I am not certain of anything in QuickBase as I came from a whole different department before getting put in charge of this.
