1:n relation between forms and data assignment
Hello together, At the moment, I have three forms: Form: New Contact Form: New Car Form: New Car Rating In the 'New Contact' form I can create a car by subform 'New Car', so the created Car should be assigned to the Contact. In the 'New Car Rating' form I can choose a Contact by lookup-field. And now, I need a dropdown-field for choosing only the cars which are assigned to the choosen contact. I hope everybody understand my problem. In summary, I need a 1:N relation between Contact and Cars and a
Email Notifications Blocked! Need help ASAP
Hi I have been trying to address an issue for a month now and I need a resolution. One of my clients is not able to receive email notifications sent through Zoho. This means there is no way to invite them to use the application, and they can not receive email notifications when a record is submitted. The company has whitelisted the Zoho Creator domain as well as a number of IPs provided to me to give to the IT department. The IT person for my client asked if the server was located outside of the
How do I fetch a specific record from Zoho Creator?
Hi, Since I couldn't pull all contacts from Zoho Books to Creator, I decided to create two lists and keep them in sync. Among other things, keeping them in sync means if a contact is updated in Zoho Books, the corresponding contact should be updated in Zoho Creator. But before I can update the record in Creator, I need to first fetch the correct record. So after digging through the available documentation, I came up with the following script. contact = customer.get("contact_name"); booksID = customer.get("contact_id");
Barcode
Hello, In a barcode scanner, initially i have set up the scanner like when you scan the barcode it should straight go to the next field below the previous field so it means for the browser we have used enter button and for zoho it means i have submitted the form. So basically unless, Zoho doesnt update their function on enter button this is not possible on zoho. But i think there is a workaround for this like when i scan the barcode On User Input it should straight go the field i point out at using
Find "closest" previous record that "matches" the current record
Has anyone (Damien Cregan?) found the best way to find the "closest"/"nearest" previous record that matches the current record without getting the "x is an empty set and values cannot be retrieved" error? For example: RecordSet = FormA [Criteria 1 == x && Criteria2 == y && Added_Time >= "some date"]; for each record in RecordSet { if record.Field == SomeCriteria { PreviousRecord = FormA [Field1 = record.Field1 && Added_Time < record.Added_Time && ??????]; } } This works in some situations,
Widget Frame Size
I've created a widget for my app but the frame that it sits in doesn't fill the page. In the Page Builder widget height is set to auto. This seems to set the height to 700px If i change this and specify a height then this changes the frame size but I don't want to specify a fixed height, i just want it to be 100% of the container Is this a glitch or am I stuck with this?
Custom Solution limitations: Is my work down the drain?
I have been working on and off over the past couple of years building a solution for a specyfic industry. I was about ready to release my first version at the start of this year, but then Zoho implemented their Developer program, which basically said that I couldn't use Creator to make a SaaS app. That hurt, but I (painfully) converted my Creator app to a Developer app. Six months later, I'm ready to start getting clients on-board. But I JUST came across the limitations Zoho has implemented for
Attach a Template from a Creator Form in CRM?
How can I attach a PDF Template to my CRM? I found this line of code: "<variable> = zoho.crm.attachFile (<module>, <record_id>, <file_object>, <connection>);" But I don't know how I can get the requested variables through DELUGE.
Batch edit doesn't run workflow
I have a workflow that looks for a status change on a form (when form is created or edited) This works fine, but if I edit several rows by selecting them in the report and then editing a single field for all selected entries, the workflow doesn't fire (or perhaps fires for only the first record in the list). Is there a way around this?
File Stream
Hello Zoho Support, I'm creating an apps which will upload file to zoho creator and will also upload the file to zoho docs using it's API. But the problem is how can I pass the File Input Stream of the File_upload field of creator form? Because File_upload is a string, I need the actual File to be pass on zoho docs. this is my sample codes: data = Map(); data.put("filename","SampleName"); data.put("content",input.File_upload); Multi_Line1 = postUrl("https://apidocs.zoho.com/files/v1/upload?authtoken="authtokenCodeHere"=docsapi",data);
Displaying report in public website - can't get it to work
What apparently seemed to be a fairly easy task, it's becoming a nightmare for me. I have created report with the price list of all our services. This report includes 7 fields like Service name, price, category etc... show in the image below and the list goes on... Now, what I need is to filter out things displayed on my website where I will publicly be showing our price list, but I don't want all columns to be seen. For example I need only Service and Price columns to be shown. What I've tried is:
Display Record Summary Inside of the Form
How can I easily display a record summary, record detail inside of a form. Example: I have an order form. If the order form is a split order, then I want it to show a previous order (un-editable). I have the logic of finding the previous order, I just need to display it. Possible Solutions: I could create a stateless form and then have the form populated. Thats a lot of work to just show a record. Use the notes field and fetch the data and populate with HTML. This also is a lot of work since Zoho

Better Search Filters - Community Forums
The ZC Community forums are an invaluable source of information for users seeking help. However, one of its limitations is the search feature. More often than not, I have to turn to Google to search the forums for relevant information, rather than using the community forums built in search feature. When I search the community forums, I'm often presented with outdated information that was published many years ago. It can be hard to "drill down" to find exactly what I need. Here are suggested search
Rich Text Field Editor and Tag support
Why is there no HTML editor for RTF fields? You can insert HTML code, but you can't edit the entire field. The Notes filed has is, but not the RTF filed. The tools available don't allow it to do much. I worked around this by creating a multi-line text field. On the click of a decision box the HTML code is copied to the multi-line field, ediited there, on the click of another box it is copied back. Works pretty well, but I find not all tags are supported. I want to do a nested outlined list.

How to make pop up form dependent on subform row user entry
I currently have a product selection on my user form which has two options (box of 12 and box of 6). When one of these is selected I have a pop up form appear which relates to the option selected by the user, triggered when they select the product. However, when a new row is added to the subform and another product selected, the subform only looks at the first row to determine which pop up form to load, not the current row that the product is being selected for. How do I make the subform check for
Can I show multiple Subform entries into a Kanban quickview report?

Using Zoho as a developer
Hello, I've set up a small system under my Premium license for Internal use. Since there are only 4 of us, this works fine with me using the 'user' license and then my colleagues as contributors. I think that there are several customers for whom we could develop applications but our customers are mostly small or micro business. They would typically have 5-10 people accessing the application. I'm trying to get my head around the pricing model for this sort of situation. Using a 5 user site as an

Custom Colors/CSS for individual series in a page dashboard
Hi, I have a gauge chart that shows me a count of ticket status ie. in progress/late/done/not started. At the moment they chart can be styled with set colors or on a color scale. Is there anyway to specify a color based upon the series/field - late is red, not started is grey etc... ? The fields are based on a fixed drop down so there is no chance of mis-spellings or accidental additions. Thought this would be an abvious feature given how customizable Zoho is. Maybe I've just not found it yet :)
App for recording delivery of consignment of blood products

How to post data from a web page to Zoho database with no network!?
Firstly, an apology - after much reading I'm not even sure I have the right forum. I was looking for the forum relating to the Zoho database our charity uses - I think it's Creator? But all the docs talk about Creator being an app platform, not a DB, so I'm not sure. Apologies if I'm in the wrong place. Secondly, we're looking at how to allow our mobile end users to submit data to the database when they have no network. Yes, I know, bear with me... We're considering a few options but one of them
Bulk Edit a Log
Hi I saw this post and want to know if this feature can be done using bulk edit? I have a courier company and want to update the status of multiple packages at the same time? It started as a simple long text field "Notes Log", and then we added a feature that: User enters new text in a separate field "Add Note". Upon submit, scripting prepends what they just entered at the top of the "Notes Log" field, AND it automatically adds the current date (we decided against date/time), and a visual divider

'Application' vs. 'Solution' in Zoho Creator Developer Zone?
1. What is the difference between building an 'Application' and a 'Solution' in Zoho Creator Developer Zone? 2. I want to build an app and have customers subscribe to my app rather than sell the app to them. What is best for me? 3. Is there a way for a client to subscribe to my software and for them to add their own users like you would using any other software out there? I really like the Zoho Creator platform but I have no idea how to get my app to market in an effective way..
Triggering an 'On input' script for existing records
Hi, I have a form with some simple automation whereby editing one field dictates the input of another. This was achieved using an 'On input' deluge workflow. However, I only built this flow after having created many records. How can I trigger this script for the ALL of the existing records. I believe it can be achieved with a function but I'm not sure where to start. Any help would be much appreciated.
PDF Record summary
Hello, When exporting a record summary into a PDF (I have made quote and invoice templates) I cannot seem to have neither the header nor the footer repeat on every page and I can't seem to add page numbers to the footer. is there something I am missing here or is this not part of Zoho Creator yet?
one to one relation in a function
I have got a new issue to work out. Form Profile is linked to Form Person through lookup field Lookup_Profile. I want to allow only one entry of Profile for each record in Person. And create a function (with a button in Person records) that opens a new Profile record OR the existing one if it already exists. I didn't get much further than fetching all records of Profile in a variable. Like recProfile = Profile ( ID != 0 ); After that I would need to check if the Lookup_Profile already is in recProfile.
