Offline Solutions
Has anyone found a good solution for working in QB offline? We are utilizing QB as a mobile form solution to inspect facilities. Users may be in parts of the building with no connection, such as the basement. Has anyone found a way to continue working within QB when entering an area with no connection? I would like to use QuickBase for this and not a third-party form builder. Thanks -Heather
Save and Scooby Doo on Mobile?
SASD is an incredibly helpful technique for desktop programs when you want to save and keep working, but it seems to stop at the "Save and Close" desktop button. On mobile, both the "Save" and "Save & New" buttons don't respond, and I'm at a loss as to how to rewrite the script. Anyone have any clues? If you need the source to look at, Dan Diebolt put it here.
URL button not showing on mobile
I have create a URL button that will show up on a report based on a formula field trigger...the button is on the report but on mobile it is not Am I missing something here Here is the code If([Health Report Required]>0,URLRoot() & "db/" & [_DBID_HEALTH_REPORTS] & "?a=API_GenAddRecordForm&_fid_28=" & URLEncode ([Record ID#])& "&z=" & Rurl(),null)
iOS login frequency, and forcing interface to remain in Mobile mode?
I have created a very small app that will only be used on iPhones (currently mobile Safari). The mobile interface is working well for this, but I have two annoyances... 1) Even after checking the 'keep me signed in' box at login, I am being forced to re-login far too frequently...in many cases within an hour. 2) Every few times I login, the interface spontaneously switches back to 'full site' mode, and I have to once again click the 'mobile' button in the toolbar. Does anyone know why either of these things are happening, and if there are remedies? Thanks in advance. JW-
Can I add an attachement field that holds a vCard?
I would like to be able to define which fields the vCard generates, and then allow users to be able to access this file from their mobile devices. So essentially I would have a button to generate the vCard based on specified fields and then create an attachment. When I enter my formula, it wants a template ID, and I'm not sure how to set up the template to have this work. Any suggestions on how to get this to work would be helpful.
Mobile view of reports- change report column names from field names
Changing column properties on a report does not change the names on the mobile report views. Changing the long field names, or using a formula mirror of a field with a simpler field name will work. However, is it possible to change the column names on reports, the way you can do on the full site? Thanks.Time capture - Device time
Hi everyone, I am building a form that will be used primarily on QB Mobile. I need to have a field that will be read-only and capture the current time of the device. I have created a few different time fields but they all seem to have the same result of capturing the time the app is set to. For example, My app is set to PST but I am in EST, I conduct an inspection and the time field reflects PST. I have users in multiple time-zones and for regulatory reasons I need the time to be read-only and display the correct time for the device.Add Record"" button redirecting after saving in mobile... when it's not supposed to?
When a user creates an order, they need to stay on that page to add another record related to an order. This has always worked fine on the PC, but for some reason our mobile version has been returning people to the previous page after they save the order: URLRoot() & "db/" & [_DBID_ORDERS] & "?a=API_GenAddRecordForm&_fid_17=" & URLEncode ([Club Name]) It definitely does not have the & "&z=" & Rurl() added to the end. I'm not sure if there's any way to fix this by using a different link or form for mobile users? I appreciate any help or insights.Is it possible to filter a map report on the mobile version?
I have just started with QuickBase, and I am trying to figure out if map reports can be filtered using the mobile version. We have a very large number of customers/leads, and our sales people need to be able to visualize customers within a city/district/county. Aside from creating literally hundreds of reports for each individual city, is there a way to select filters on the mobile version? Thank you for your help!
