Creator 5 - Page Break in an HTML Page
HTML page/ snippet/whatever. I have a client with a specific 3-page filled-out printed form that they need generated from the Zoho app. In the past it was simple (but tedious) to just create a Page to mimic the printed form and then either send it to a printer or send it to PDF. To get pagebreak I had <head> <style type="text/css"> P.breakhere {page-break-before: always} </style> </head> and then in the body of the HTML where I wanted the page break I would put <P CLASS="breakhere"> and
Multiple Date fields into one report
Hi, I have a form that records 5 date fields. Is there any way I can have all of the fields appear in 1 report? Ideally I would like ti in a calendar (either in Zoho or get the iCal feed). Thanks for anyhelp.
Restoring report data
I am trying to restore a report. Several fields were look-ups, so when a related form was removed all those fields went blank. I thought I could just use the automatic back up, but the data isn't in there either. The csv files show relational ID numbers, weirdly the numbers aren't unique- not sure what's going on there- so there's no way for me to manually match up records to fill in the blank fields. Is my only option to create a dummy app, do a full restore, and download this one report to then
MAJOR Security hole in ZC5 reports(kanban)
@Support: With the introduction of the kanban report I have discovered a major security flaw. If a user creates a kanban report from a filtered lookup field, the filter will not apply to the values in the kanban. See: http://prntscr.com/lhr2k4 There is no mention of this in your help documentation. So if someone was creating all list reports and not using kanban they would not be aware of this. The only option is to remove the column from your report, in which case you lose the ability to see the

Adding to a lookup when criteria met. WARNING... COMPLICATED
So... Trying to add a "product" (aka ID of a house) to a customer within the approval process. The "PotentialRevedyHomes" is the field I want to add the "Revedy_ID" to, but only when listing price is within the limits the customer sets and the home is within the zip code of where the customer is looking. I also want to make sure it is not a house they have declined or already liked. The problem is these are all lists and I can't get the match to happen. There is not an error, but it does not add

Input Multiple Parameters for Page
I have a page that is acting as a report across several forms in my app. I want the end user to be able to filter the report for Employee (User) and a date range. I've figured out how to use the Search to pass a parameter to the URL (open Page in same window), and I can see how to filter Panels, Reports, etc. using the parameters. It's just not clear to me how to get several user-entered parameters into the page URL. How would I go about getting the date parameters into the page URL in a similarly

Fetching leads from Zoho CRM into Zoho Creator, automatically
I'd like to pull new leads from the CRM system, into Creator, on a daily basis. Is this possible? Yes, it is possible. Zoho Creator and Zoho CRM are integrated with each other, enabling you to synchronize data between them. This is done by fetching records from CRM into a Zoho Creator form. In order to achieve this, you'll have to configure a workflow alert in Zoho CRM. For instance, you can maintain the lead details in CRM on a separate form in Zoho Creator by fetching the details automatically

Updating Records on import
Hello, I am trying to update records on import (not create a new record). I have seen several community forums for this but they are all incredibly out of date. My problem: When trying to do a mass import, any records with matching ID & project ID, I want those records to be updated and not have a new line created. How can I do this?
2 "lookup" forms sharing the same lookup field - how to?
Hi, I have one main form asking for someone's age and I want to access 2 other 'lookup' forms based on the age entered. Each of these other 2 forms (one to do with nutrition and the other to do with exercise) are designed to be looked up based on age. I don't want to combine these 2 forms (for a bunch of reasons) but how can I access both of them in the main form without the user having to enter their age twice on the main form? I was thinking I would have the 2 age lookup fields in the main form
Multiple Part Numbers
In our industry some parts are identified by multiple unique part numbers. Items are referenced by part numbers only and the part number will be the primary key. For example a part has the following unique part numbers all referencing the same product: Part Number 1: 571889-001 Part Number 2: 484275-001 Part Number 3: 484274-001 I am creating a form “Add Part” and I would like to add all these 3 part numbers referencing the same product with a common
Error handling
Hi, I have built an error handler function for my google api call. However I’m struggling to find an elegant way to restart the original workflow or function upon refreshing the access token. workflow: run function “api call” (for example read a file on google drive) function api call: calls google api and upon response = error, calls errorhandler. function errorhandler: deal with the error. If the error is ‘token expired’, call function “refreshtoken”. Function refreshtoken: refreshes google access
Sum time field
Is it possible to script for cumulative total of a time field? I am using the following script to fetch time from one form to another: for each PeopleRecord in People[ID in input.People_lookup] { //fetch participation record ParticipationRecord = Participation[ID in PeopleRecord.Participation_dates]; //update record PeopleRecord.No_hours_participated=Time_spent; } This only gives me the most recent 'time' from the record. Is there a way of doing a cumulative total time? Thanks!

Subform filtering || sorting (mainly for printing out)
Let's assume that we have two form, orders and parts. Orders form includes parts as the subform. Parts form has a lookup field, called manufacturer, which informs where the parts have been made in.

How to remove an item (voucher code) from inventory in Creator App
I need to create an app for my campground to allow my office people to issue WiFi voucher codes to our customers. My gateway can generate a list of codes which I would upload into the Creator app. When my staff sells a voucher code, I would like to have the code they select no longer available for re-issue.

Passing a perameter to a report to be used as criteria in the report.
Is it possible to pass a parameter in the openUrl function to a report to be used as part of the criteria to base the report on. openUrl("https://creator.zoho.com/zoho_alan18/atelier/#Form:On_Hand_Count?Tech_ID =" + User.Employee_ID , "same window"); // 1) Tech_ID is a field value that the report is based on. 2) User.Employee_ID is the Tech_ID assigned in the [Employee] form. OR: can I create a user defined variable to pass and use that as part of the criteria? Thank you for the help, Alan
Display Calculated Result in Page Panels Using Data from Multiple Forms
I'm building a report page that uses data from multiple Forms in my database, and I want to display calculated values using data from multiple Forms. For example, the Attendance Form tracks the employee hours worked, but the New Build Form tracks employee productive time. I don't see an easy way to have a panel that displays the result of dividing the latter by the former. It looks like it might be possible to do this via directly editing the underlying ZML in a panel, but it's not obvious what the

Creator - Schema Builder - Can you save the view?
I find the schema builder really helpful at times for visualizing my apps and their architecture as they evolve. That is, is helpful after I reposition the form icons to make some visual sense. The thing is, the schema builder always defaults to a random system generated view/arrangement, which is generally chaotic to look at. This happens upon refresh, it happens if you leave the view and come back to it, and it even happens on print - the print view itself reverts to the chaotic system view. I

Schrems II decision on Privacy Shield and the use of Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs)
Hi, I am using developer.creator to which I understand the servers are based in the U.S., although originally there were attempts to host in the E.U.? The recent decision -Schrems II- impacts every EU business which has personal data stored in the U.S. I was just wondering the status with Zoho as regards to developer.creator, will the EU customers be transfered back to EU? Maybe they are in the E.U. now, but I am unaware? Although not panicking yet, the product is low-cost cloud-based GDPR compliance
Live Page
Hi I am working on a hospitality app which requires the kitchen staff to see all food orders on a screen and update the order with the press of a button from the report itself. The latter is easy but I just can’t find a way to keep the orders report up to date. Manual refresh of page is not ideal as the customer wants their big kitchen screen to show all the orders with their live status. Wondering if there was a way to make a ‘live’ report? I mean I could make an HTML page to visualise the orders
Importing CSV data only to inline subforms
I have two forms, parent_form and child_form. The parent_form has inline subform which is child_form. My question is about importing CSV data which has many null values(so when imported, some rows are not imported correctly, but it's OK for me) to child_form_report. Import actions are done frequently. The results of imports are that the child_form_report has data from CSV, but the parent_form's inline child_form does not have. I think if could, when imports are completed, inline child_form will have

Double "For Each" loop to update grand-child record
Hello all, I have three forms: countries > cities > airports. Each child is related to its parent with one to many bi-directional lookup fields.

When an update happen on a field on "countries" (the parent), I am trying to update fields on cities (the child) and on airports (the grand-child). I succeed to update the child using "For Each"

Changing behavior of lookup suggestion/autocomplete
Hi, 1-I'd like my lookup fields not to display records in a dropdown fashion. The info in these lookups are private and I'd like the user to type in his value (for example, email), and after 3-5 letters the field would start searching for autocomplete. 2-Or another solution would be to not give any autocomplete/suggestions: to just match the value with the existing record, and if there's no match, then prompt the "Add new record". 3-The last solution would be to filter the lookup in a way that no
