Due to a major Microsoft Azure outage that began around 11:45 AM Eastern US Time, specific Quickbase related web sites are down. This issue is not impacting the Quickbase platform. The following web sites are unavailable or have degraded performance: Fastfield - Please see the Fastfield Status Page for updates - https://fastfield.status.io/ Quickbase University Quickbase Service Page We will post updates here in Quickbase Community as we learn more from Microsoft and the partner vendors we use for Quickbase University and Quickbase Service Page. Subscribe to this post to get email updates. Update 3:48pm As of 3:35 PM Eastern US Time, we are starting to see slow recovery of our impacted web sites. Some customers are able to intermittently access Fastfield, Quickbase University, and Quickbase Service Page. Microsoft reports that full recovery could take as much as 4 more hours. We are continuing to monitor the sites and will update this post as we see significant change. 5:01 pm Update As of 4:55 PM Eastern US Time, we continue to see steady recovery of our impacted web sites. Fastfield access has become increasingly more consistent. The vendor that hosts Quickbase University just marked the incident as resolved for them within the past 10 minutes and our monitoring is showing University as available again. The vendor that hosts the Quickbase Service Page marked the incident as resolved for them an hour ago, but we continued to see failures until very recently. We are continuing to monitor the sites and will update this post as we see significant change. 8:45 PM Update As of 8:20 PM Eastern US Time, our web sites impacted by the Microsoft Azure outage are running normally and have been for a couple hours. Microsoft has noted on their status page that they do not expect to fully resolve the issue until 8:40 PM Eastern US Time (about 20 minutes from now) but we feel safe in stating this issue is resolved for us. There will be no further updates.
Document Template Spacing
Hello, I am looking for any advice/help on QuickBase's Document Template issues I have been experiencing. I have a word template that I have uploaded that is a single page, however it keeps spanning multiple pages when I uploaded. Has anyone been able to adjust the spacing in Document Templates? I can't find any way to do it, it seems to default to a double space and I want single spaces. Has anyone been able to find a way to keep their documents templates to just a single page easily? ThanksSuggestions for archiving or closing records
In my current application I am building for the purpose of tracking Assets, their monthly rental rates, rental charges for each/month, and monthly invoices for each client. Currently the application has about 10 years' worth of data and this is making some of the reports, forms have long load times as there are at least 3 dozen or so calculations being done across all the tables and forms. My thought was when a month, quarter, year is closed then specific data would be "captured" and moved to another table. The "Archived" table would just hold the results of any calculations previously done, essentially creating a snapshot of that record into another table. The Archived table could then be used for other reports but wouldn't be bogged down with having to do the original calculations, their results would just be summarized. Once this data was captured, the original record would either somehow be closed for editing or get an archived indicator, so they could be excluded from the current month/quarter/years' entries. Just seeking the best way to optimize the application as the amount of data will only continue to grow and thus the lag time greater when accessing the system.
Transferring Field Data to Another Record
Hello, Is it possible for me to transfer quantity data on one record to another record? As an example, Record A has 10 laptops. Record B has 5 laptops. I would like to transfer 2 laptops from Record A to Record B. I've tried different methods, but I keep hitting a wall.XLSX import to 2 Linked Tables?
Is there an easy way to accomplish this? Say as an example: Table1 - LEAD_NAME, PHONE, CONTACT_NAME Table2 - LEAD_NAME, CALL_DATE, NOTES Table1 can link to many Table2 If I create an xlsx sheet with all the relevant fields, can I do a mass import of leads and or calls (together) with a single upload? Or two uploads might make more sense so it doesn't duplicate leads? LEAD1, 555-555-5555, Bob, 09/17/2025,"Good Call" LEAD1, 555-555-5555, Bob, 09/17/2025,"Bad Call" I am curious how the linking would work here. I assume a pipeline might be needed? but before going down that path I wanted to see if I am overlooking an easier way.
Change date filter from range to specific date
When you have a date column on a report, and select the filter icon, you are forced to enter a start and end date in order to filter that column. Is there any way you can force it to just accept a single date? I know I can set a report filter for an ask the user for that field, I'm seeking a way to disable the popup calendar that appears when just normal column filtering.
