Filter Lookup Dropdown Based On Logged In User
I have a field in the Application "Contractors" that is a dropdown called "Region" within the "Contractor Info" Form I'm using another Application "Scheduling" that uses the "Contractor Info Form" as a lookup field to input "Contractor Name" What I need to do is to make another form (not sure if it should be in the Scheduling Application or in the Contractors Application) where I attach "Region" to a specific manager (either as their login email or User ID). Thinking this would tie "Region"
Query Parameters in Open Report action
Hi, I need to pass a query parameter in an Open Report action on a dashboard page I'm building but I can only get the "=" operator to work: fdClosedState=No. I need to have more complex queries passed to a few reports using the same layout but I can't seem to get any others to work with any other operators except for =. I know I can duplicate the reports and apply individual filter sets to each, or add fields to my database that when calculated will give me a value I can use in an 'equals' sense
Running summary of selected rows in a report

The client wants to have a running summary of some fields for rows that they have selected. For example: Row 1 = Price - Volume - Other data Row 2 = Price - Volume - Other data Row 3 = Price - Volume - Other data Row 4 = Price - Volume - Other data If Row 1 and Row 2 were selected (using the checkboxes) they want to display the sum of price and volume for those

Receive SMS messages in Zoho Creator
I have noticed about 6 to 8 months ago zoho support mentioned an update so zoho creator and crm to allow for receiving sms text messages. Did the functionality to receive sms text messages into Zoho Creator or Zoho CRM ever get completed? How close is this update? Will this work will all of the currently supported sms providers? Anything we should be aware of with it? Should we continue to wait for zoho or should we be trying to use a work around? Thank Matthew
New Info/Alert Limitation
The new restriction "For performance reasons, the collective response from the info and alert statements in a function is now restricted to 500 KB. When this limit is exceeded, the response will be truncated and appended with: The info message has been truncated because its size exceeded 500 KB" Is ridiculous. Zoho, you cannot keep making arbitrary changes for "performance" reasons. Sort out your backend! You never consider your customers and their customers. Most end users do not know what 500kb
Uploaded pdf file column in a report: View instead of Download on click
Is there a way where on click the pdf files uploaded can be just viewed in a seperate browser tab? Right now users are forced to download and then open. The pdf links show up in the column. Also, is there a way to conveniently set a filename for display? Some uploaded files have huge names etc and look ugly in the reports. Or are we stuck with whatever filenames are set when the file was uploaded?

Filter report from button/panel on Page
Hi, I would like to filter contents of a Report based on a function via a button or panel on the page where the report is embedded. This means there is a button or panel with a function, and if for example the panel has Archived, only archived records will show in the report below the panel. Today I am using a Page Open Action on the Panel, which means I create a separate page with the filtered report. I guess this is not most effective? Thank you!

Easiest Zoho Creator Sync Scripts and Methods
Hi, I would like to build a POS App using Zoho Creator.

Problem with multiple 'for each' statements in workflow
New to ZC and almost a novice at coding. I'm mostly getting along fine learning Deluge through the documentation and googling, but I'm completely stuck on this one. At line 22 I get the error 'Variable Actual_Work_Time does not exist in Activity_log'.

Detecting a user closing a form without submitting it.
I probably know the answer to this but I though I'd just ask in case someone has found a way to do this. is there a some kind of on close or on quit event where deluge script can be run when a user cancels or closes a form or quits the window that a form is open without submitting or updating a form.? It would be useful for us to do some data clear up if this happened to one of our forms. Thanks
updateRelatedRecord does not overwrite CRM list
I am using the following command to replace the contents of a related list in the CRM with those of my own list. updateCRM = zoho.crm.updateRelatedRecord("Products",productID.toLong(),"Accounts",input.Account_ID.toLong(),Map:String({"Products":subList})); It adds the records of my list that are not in the CRM list just fine, but it does not remove the records not present in my list.
