How to add Tabs (Pages) to only a specific section of a form?
Hi everyone, I’m trying to organize a form using Tabs (Pages), but I’m running into some confusion with how Quickbase handles them.Previously, I was able to add new sections below existing ones without issues. However, when I try to add a new Page (Tab), Quickbase automatically moves all my existing fields into Page 1 and puts the new fields on Page 2. The tabs also always appear at the very top of the form. What I actually want is to have tabs (or a tab-like experience) applied to only a specific section lower down in the form, without wrapping the entire form into multiple pages. Is there a way to achieve this? Or what is the recommended approach — using multiple Pages, Sections with rules, or a completely different method? Any advice or best practices would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.0likes3CommentsURL Add Related Form (But popup like embedded Reports)
I am trying to make a URL Button to add a child record in a form Example: URLRoot() & "db/" & DBID & "?a=API_GenAddRecordForm&_fid_13=" & ToText([Record ID#])& "&dfid=10&popup=1" I also tried: URLRoot() & "db/" & DBID & "?a=API_GenAddRecordForm&_fid_13=" & [Record ID#] & "&target=popup&popupwidth=500&popupheight=400" I also tried these checking In Same Page, In New Window, And In Pop Up.but the button does not pop up like the embedded report. is it possible to make a button that works this way on PC and Mobile as it does in the Report button Link?1like2CommentsUsing one field to collect data multiple times.
In quickbase, I have a field for user and datetime. There are several project status like pending, submitted, review,approved and denied. Everytime in the status field change I want to record who did the change and date time. I want to use the two buttons. submitted by and submitted datetime field to track the audit history or logs. I did try with a pipeline but there is no data being recorded. Anyone done this before?Solved0likes9CommentsUsing one field to collect data multiple times.

In legacy forms, there was a way to color each tab title within a form (snip 1). The resulting form could look something like snip 2. Using the new forms designer, I have not found a way to color each tab/page (snip 3). Is this no longer an option or am I just not seeing how to do it? Snip 1 Snip 2 Snip 3 Thanks....Aaron ------------------------------ Aaron B [email protected] ------------------------------0likes3CommentsNumeric Fields Show Separator After 4 Places
Curious to get other's thoughts. We have not enabled the new Grid Reports in our primary application. We have one application used by a small group that does have new Grid Reports enabled. This application (with Grid Reports enabled) has summarized data from our primary application. I was updating the data today and noticed the totals have the comma separator after 4 places. So, 100000 is displayed as 10,0000. When last updated, I'm pretty sure the comma separator was after 3 places. I see in the field properties a select of Show separator after 4 places or Show separator after 3 places. This appears to be a new option with the default of 4 places. For all the numeric fields, I'll need to manually change to 3 places. I could not find anything in the release notes about this option. Has anyone seen anything related to this? Is there any way to change the default to 3 places? I have a feeling this is going to be overlooked quite a bit when adding new numeric fields.Solved1like9CommentsInspection Sheet Possibilities
I am attempting to build an inspection sheet that will state if the dimension entered is within the specified tolerance. I have attached a screenshot of how I would like it to function, however after a week of reading the community pages. I have had little success in making it operational. Current Setup(see attached): Column #1 (Data Entry-Multi Choice or Numeric). Column #2 (output based on Column #1, OK/Green, Out of Tolerance/Red) Column#3 (Section view, visual reference only) I have had varied success with Column #2 as Text-Formula or Rich Text Formula using If statements with Greater Than, Less Than, and Equal to statements. ie. it does something but not the desired outcome. Questions: Is my idea possible? If so, Is Numeric/Multi Choice the correct choice for Column #1? Am I missing a step where I need to change the numeric into text and then apply the formula? Any help or ideas on how to accomplish this would be greatly appreciated. Regards, LandonSolved0likes8Comments
