How to create lookup field that only list unique records
Hi, I have several single line fields in my form of which most have duplicate records, but I need the user to go through a 4 step process of selecting from a lookup list, then the next 3 fields will be a dynamic pick-list based on previous selections, but I don't want the duplicates to show up in any of these drop downs... I've tried to configure the lookup field with a distinct aggregate record function, but it either doesn't work or I'm doing it wrong. Is there a better way? Cheers Eric
Creation of a numbered list
I have read a lot of threads on why Zoho doesn't use loops, but here is a case that I seem to run into many problems trying to accomplish. It should be very very simple. In one form, I ask among other things, for a maximum (N) number of entries to expect in a related form. Thus, I would like a picklist in that other form that allows the user to choose which set (1 -- N) that form represents. Usually you would just create a for loop and use add item(num); num++; but that seems impossible on here.
Feature Request: disable specific dates from calendar (based on rules)
Hello, I have two fields: departure date and return date (for flight). Business logic is: - The departure cannot be in the past (the sooner is today) - The return cannot happen before the departure (the sooner is the same day as departure) Best option I've found is to display alert messages in case above rules are not validated. But instead of letting the user selecting dates that are not valid and then displaying an alert message, it would be better to prevent the user from selecting dates that

One big app or multiple small connected apps?
I have a question for everyone on their thoughts and knowledge with app design. I was originally using Appsheet before coming back to Zoho Creator. I am building an app or apps for my house flipping business and it has many facets such as CRM, project management, logistics, material lists, etc, etc. With Appsheet, the more tables, forms, and data you had in one app, the slower it became and would take minutes for the backend to reload after each edit. Creating multiple connected apps was way too

How do I get the sum of a field in a sub-form
I am completely new to Zoho Creator. Using the SUM documentation below, I attempted to use a formula field to sum a single numeric field in a sub-form. I could never get it to work. I then tried with all fields in a db with only one form. Still no go, and I got the same errors. Should sum() work in the Expression property of a Formula field? If not, where do I use it to get a total for a field? If the sum function is not the way to go, what is? Here are results of various entries in Expression
