Form(s) on Home Page
I can't be the only one who is needing this, and maybe it is so simple that it is just too dumb to have on the forum, but I also have had a struggle looking through basic help on this. I would like to put an intake form, maybe even two forms, directly on the home page. Like bam! first thing. No click a button to go to a table. Just form first thing. I would like it to just say Thanks or can even go to a report or something afterwards, but I can get to that later. Again, simplest solution to the problem is best. This is not an open to the internet solution, but could be later. Swift help would be awesome. (I also wanted to put this out here so that others could have a solution as well)50Views1like7CommentsHow to calculate run time from hour meter reading
I own a small utility company and have several operators check in plants. They record the day's meter readings (cumulative hour meters and water meters) in QuickBase. I need to calculate run time based on the previous reading compared to the current reading. I have dozens of facilities, hundreds of meters to read and thousands of reads. Tables: Facilities, Equipment, Reads. The readings are taken on random dates (no defined interval). I have the read table related to itself so that the previous read can be "selected". This has been working but I would like to be able to import a list of reads but I don't know how to populate the record ID required for finding the "previous" read. I think I'm looking for a way to dynamically/logically calculate the key field.36Views1like6CommentsLookup and fill field values based on the content of another table
I have two tables: Table A holds records for daily delivery routes, two of its fields are the [Driver Name] and [Van ID]. Table B holds records of every stop completed on all daily routes, it also has the fields [Driver Name] and [Van ID]. The stop records in Table B are imported via an API call to a platform which records GPS tracking data for each van. The [Van ID] is obtained with the call, but the [Driver Name] cannot be. What I want to do is for every record in Table B, where the [Van ID] = "123", for example, I want to lookup in Table A which delivery route had [Van ID] = "123" and find the associated driver name, and show it in the Table B record(s). Has anyone had any experience with a problem like this? Thanks30Views2likes10Commentshow do I create a button that allows the user to continue to the next tab
We are creating a public form with multiple sections. Using the new tab section makes the form looks a lot neater, which is great, but there doesn't seem to be a way for us to indicate to the user where they are in the form and direct them to the next tab. Does anyone know how to create a button where the user can be redirected to the next tab? Or save and redirect to the next tab, or a field that is in the next tab? Also, this is a very noob question, but where can I find the urlfor my form which removes the Quickbase header and tabs? And how do I embedd the form into an iframe? If it's embedded in an iframe, when I look at it on a mobile, does it default to the QB mobile view? Thanks in advance23Views3likes27CommentsApp for submitting requests for a team but where users have no other access
Hello all, I'm part of a BI team that is taking over the support of QB at our company. I'm new to app building and want to see if anyone has heard/had the following scenario: We have many apps in QB which users have access. I'm building a new ticketing app for our team to support users who need help with QB or for other tasks that our team handles. For this app, I want users (either registered or non-registered) to be able to fill out the form I created but not have any other access to the app. The only people who will have access is our team (as admins) and very few managers from other teams (these will likely have QB licenses). My thought was that I would build a homepage that has a button to fill out the form (screenshot attached). Not sure if this is the best way to accomplish my task...so would love some input. My second question is about permissions. I read about EOTI but 1- that sounds risky and 2- we don't need it for anyone outside of our organization. I thought maybe the better option was granting access to all in our company per this article. However when I try that I get no results...is that how it's supposed to look? Thanks in advance for any help/advice you can give! :) ------------------------------ Julie Bowers ------------------------------23Views0likes4CommentsToggle Desktop View to Mobile View
I can't seem to figure out how to toggle between desktop view and mobile view in my App. I realize I can set the default view for the App as mobile or desktop for non-admins but as an admin, how do I view (and edit) my App form in mobile view?

Is anyone aware of method for non-admin to manually refresh a connected (gmail) table? I have a gmail connected table with minimum refresh time (one hour). Sometimes we are aware of an email from customer but have to wait up to an hour to sync to table before we can work on it - difficult to explain to a customer. The 'Refresh Data' button seems to only appear for admin, hoping there is a URL to trigger a refresh. Cheers, Anthony.19Views3likes21CommentsSorting a Summary Report
