Pivot Chart: compare actual value of 1 record with Avg, Min, Max of entire column
Hello - as the title suggests I would like to make a scatter plot (or any chart that will display what I want to visualize), which plots the Avg, Min, and Max of values in a column, and then plot 1 value from a particular record from the same column. For instance there are 20 test scores - the Avg, Min, and Max of all test scores are plotted - also little Johnnys particular scores is plotted on the same chart so he can see how he compares to the Avg, Min, Max. Thank you!

Dynamic picklist based on values of other records (same form)
Hello, I am a new user and looking for some input on how to accomplish a task. I am running a membership database. After being a member for a year, you are now authorized to sponsor other new members. On a user record, I typically enter who their sponsor is. My goal would be to have this be a dropdown, or lookup. However, I only want to show other members that are eligible to sponsor. So, the criteria when someone clicks on the dropdown would be to look at all of the other records and only show
How can you relate two Accounts together
On the Account form I wanted to place a Look Up field to select another Account "Parent Account". This will establish a Parent/Child link between accounts. When I place the Look Up field into the Account form, I don't have the option of selecting another Account form. Is there a workaround for this kind of simple Form A to Form A relationship? Thanks, Kurt
All reports involving this field will be lost!
When looking to delete a field in a form I created, I receive the following message: "Data corresponding to this field and all reports involving this field will be lost. Do you really want to delete this field?" Is there any way to delete a field from a form without losing all the reports I've spent so much time creating?! Whilst I understand any data captured by a field in a form will be lost, I don't understand why all reports created are also deleted. Why can't the field just also be removed
Limit on filter values?
Hello We have designed an application for a client and they need to be able to filter the data by month. Unfortunately, they have now been using the app for more than 50 months, which means that the most recent month (ie January 2016) is no longer turning up as an option in their filter menu. (There is a limit of 50 with date-time filter values -- see https://www.zoho.com/creator/help/views/set-filters.html). I can't create custom filters because the sheer number of views involved (ie hundreds),

Hide a form with control statement
Hi, I would like to hide a whole form depending on who is logged in. I know that a form can be hiden or shown but for all situations.

How to make data field unchangable for user?
Some data fields I have scripted to calculate themselves automatically(using different dates), using different date. I am using script like this: if input.main_date != null { input.purchase_date = input.main_date.subweek(2); } What I would like to achieve is to disable those data fields from being edited by the user. So for data fields that are calculated automatically using the script above, I would like to make them non-editable by user (so only automation affects them). Is this possible?
Order Id
Hi, Im trying to create an order management system. Each order should have a number but this number is consecutive for the department, where the order belongs to. For example, if the latest order from Human Resources is #8, the new order will be #9. But if the latest order from Production is #20, the new order will be #21. The idea is that the order number is automatically generated after you select the department. I appreciate your help so I can achieve this.

Hi, Probably doing a misstake, but needed to check. I have a form that has two states. Either its billable or nonbillable. There is a subform that has products dropdown that has some product and one of them is "Non billable product" If its NONBILLABLE (Main form) then all the products dropdown in each row should say "Non billable product".

Report with multi-select criteria and related forms
I have a form created for individual freelance employees with a related form tracking their availabilities.

A beginner's workflow question
I have a table that has one record per day. Each record contains the date, total sales for the day, and total cost for the day. I update the table with new information daily and would like to routinely generate the cost % of various ranges of days (week, month, etc). What is the most efficient way to do this? I assume there will be some querying involved, I am versed in SQL, I just need help with the most efficient path from A to B in Zoho.
Complex query and update
I need to count by grouping fields FIELD1 and FIELD2. I need to group by FIELD1 and FIELD2, and get the count of each group. For example VALUE1, VALUE2 = 30 OCCURRENCES. Value3, value4 = 40 occurrances. I only need the value groups where the count is >1. Then I will get the FIELD1 value of the group and update all rows containing this value. I know how to write this easily in SQL but how do I implement it in Zoho ? Once this function is written I will make it run nightly.
GUID as line ID

Checklist made of hyperlinks
Hi, I'm trying to create a checklist, using a few checkboxes with a few options in each one. I need every line (every option under every checkbox) will link to a file in our Google Drive (the name of the option will be a hyperlink) Another (maybe better) option will be an "upload a file" link next to the option text, that will upload and save the file to out Google Drive, and after the upload will change to a link to the uploaded file. Is any of these options possible under Zoho? Thanks! Ravid
Mobile app IOS Split screen only partly working
Using an IPad Air 2 It would be very useful when filling out some ZC forms to have information available from a different app in a split screen. For example contact information from Contacts, to use in the active ZC form. Although this works fine with most apps, for example the Contacts app can be open in one half of the Ipad screen and Safari can be open in active window next to it, the ZC Mobile app does not appear to currently support this. It appears that both apps cannot be active at the same

Fixed day - x number of days
I have an issue in a form where I need to derive a new date based on a fixed date minus a variable number of days. The formula field would look something like: ((Fixed_Date - variable_days) / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24)).round(0) However the issue of course is that the 'variable_days' field is STRING type data. How do I workaround this?
Sub form "+ Add New" function not available on mobile app
Hello I have an application that has a number of subforms that hold lists of items. The number of items per use can vary.

Signature Field/Internet Exporer/Iframe Issue
Hello all, I published one of our forms using the public permissions and embedded it using the Iframe embed code.

"Dynamic" HTML links
Hello All: I have built an HTML page to display project information. The page is working great and I am looking to add some more functionality. I have a couple of tables where I have iterated the information to be displayed.

I have links working but all the links within a given table provide the same results. This is my first foray into HTML so I am on the inexperienced side.
