I’m trying to make monthly reports of a few thousands entries. However my script never stops, and not sure what the mistake is. I’m pretty new to JS and not sure if it’s my loop within a loop that is the problems? let wip, wipOrderView ,tableWIP, queryWIP let cost, costReviewView, costTable, date, customer, garment, switchs, totalFactCost, costTime, estTotalCost, price let currentMonth wip='Work in Progress' wipOrderView='Monthly_order_review' cost = 'Costing' costReviewView = 'Monthly_Overview' date='Date' customer='Customer' garment = 'Garment' switchs = 'Switch' totalFactCost = 'Total fact cost' costTime = 'Time' estTotalCost = 'estTotalCost' price = 'priceScripting' tableWIP = base.getTable(wip).getView(wipOrderView) costTable = base.getTable(cost).getView(costReviewView) /////////////////////////////////////EVERY MONTHLY REVIEW ////////////////////////////////// let everyMonth = async () =>{ output.text(`This will take a little time as the system is compiling thousand

Not sure this is the right category, but… Is there a keyboard shortcut to check a checkbox? it’s incredibly annoying when doing data entry to have to switch to my mouse to check off a box… i’ve checked the shortcuts menu and don’t see it, searched the forum here and don’t see it, but i might not be searching on the right combination of words? any clues on this would be great… i’ve tried spacebar and enter and shift enter and a variety of other possible, intuitive solutions but none of them seem to do the trick. if it’s NOT a thing… then @airtable dev… could it please BE a thing! :grinning_face_with_big_eyes:

Hi, I’m looking for a formula that can help me understand my “task capacity” for the day. In other words, let’s say I have “estimated time required” set for all tasks for that day, and that equals 7 hours… how can I then: a) First create a formula or setting to tell Airtable my capacity for the day is 8 hours, and… b) How can I then create a formula that takes that day’s tasks and lets me know if I’m over or under capacity? An example… If my max was set to 8 hours for the day, and I have 7 hours of tasks, AT would tell me I’m in the green (Green check symbol). If I have 9 hours of projected tasks, AT would tell me I’m over capacity (Red cross symbol)? I’ve attached a screenshot of my current “Tasks” view inside my own project manager, in case it’s of help. Thanks in advance for any assistance! -Christopher

Hi! I am using an airtable automation to move certain data from the record to a different table, then I would like to automatically delete the record in the original table. Can I take that last step using Automations? I couldn’t figure out how. Apologies if this is well documented, I couldn’t find it though! Thanks!

Hey All I am stumped and have not been able to find a solution. Any help would be much appreciated. Problem: I have 3 columns that match “Champion” I have a 4th column I want to print “Champion” but only if all three columns match Champion I have tried SWITCH({R segement} & {F segement} & {M segement copy}, “Champion”, “Champion”) but is not working Thanks

Hello Friends, Needing to use datetime_diff to return days, hours, and minutes. I can only get the days to return the value. Tried all different types of formula nothing is working. Any thoughts?

I’m trying to make a simple repport and wonder if I can make line breaks in a table? I have tried a few different things like: output.table([ {'': 'start', '%':0}, {'': 'Halfway', '%':50}, {'': 'finished\ncompleted' , '%':100}, ] ) output.table([ {'': 'start', '%':0}, {'': 'Halfway', '%':50}, {'': 'Delivered<br>Completed' , '%':100}, ] ) output.table([ {'': 'start', '%':0}, {'': 'Halfway', '%':50}, {'': 'Delivered\nCompleted' , '%':100}, ] ) output.table([ {'': 'start', '%':0}, {'': 'Halfway', '%':50}, {'': ['Delivered', 'Completed'] , '%':100}, ] ) output.table([ {'': 'start', '%':0}, {'': 'Halfway', '%':50}, {'': `Delivered Completed` , '%':100}, ] ) The closest I’ve come to a line break is this: output.table([ {'': 'start', '%':0}, {'': 'Halfway', '%':50},

Any suggestions for how to view my Bases properly in Chrome? I’m on a Macbook Pro viewing on a LG monitor, although if I move the tab to my Mac the issues still exists. All is good when I’m on Firefox. See comparison of both browsers in screenshots.

This seems so simple. What am my missing? AUTOMATION TRIGGER When a record matches conditions When “Publish Date” is not empty (this test runs successfully) ACTION (see screenshot) When I enter a publish date I’d like the Status field to update from READY TO UPLOAD to PUBLISHED. The test runs successfully but the record does not update to PUBLISHED. I noticed if I enter a single select option in the automation that DOES NOT exist it will add that to the dropdown list of options but still won’t actually update the record with the new choice. So obviously I’m not entering something right for it to actually change the status option. Or maybe that’s not possible based on my looking around for an answer. If it isn’t possible, could I accomplish this with Integromat? And if yes, could someone give a few tips on how? Thanks for any help.

I am sure this is going to be the first of many questions as I build my clinic CRM/Visit and inventory manager. The first formula I’m looking for is providing my patients with a unique identifier. The autonumber or record ID isn’t appropriate. The unique reference/ID I was looking to contain the following: First and Last Initial Date of birth (ddmmyy) Incremental 3 digit number (001 So my record ID (Patient Record Number (PRN)) would be BB031200001 Any help is greatly received Bri

I’ve just started working with custom apps. I’ve gone through the tutorials, but I can’t find a way to view logs to the console in Airtable. Does anyone know how to do this? I was expecting it to be a tab in the below…

Hi, I am trying to create an automation involving attachments. When the attachment gets uploaded into the one table (Incidents and in Incident Report/Doc… column), it will appear in another table (Tenants and in Incidents column) Trigger: When record matches conditions Table: Incidents Condition: Incident Report/Doc is not empty Test Run: Successful Action: Update Record Table: Tenants Record ID: (this is where I’m stumped). I choose Name as that is the common field between the two tables. Field: Incidents I have linked the fields together but it adds additional steps so I am hoping to eliminate that aspect.

Hi all, When grouping, Airtable automatically does this count, anybody know if we can pull this Count Value into a cell with like a Formula or something?

I’m trying to use data from a lookup field in a formula and keep getting #ERROR!. The formula (below) works with a plain text field created to test, but not the lookup field. IF({CITIZEN SLACKIDS}=BLANK(),’’, ‘<@’ & SUBSTITUTE(VALUE({CITIZEN SLACKIDS}),’, ', ‘>, <@’) & ‘>’) I’ve tried wrapping the lookup field in VALUE () to no avail.

Hello, I’m trying to create a formula to give a certain status to a record when 2 criteria are met. This is my attempt but I get the status “Onvolledig” in every cell although there are cases where the result should be “Volledig”: IF(AND({Betaalopdracht} = 1,({Huurders} = ‘’)), “Volledig”, “Onvolledig”) Field {Betaalopdracht} is a Checkbox. Field {Huurders} is a linked record => so if the checkbox is ticked AND {Huurders} is not empty, then I would like to get the status “Volledig”. Thanks in advance for the help! And I’m sorry if my explanation should be insufficient, I’m new to Airtable.

Hey! I’m trying to send an array of customer data to an API webhook on a external service (e.g. Sendgrid/Zapier), using a POST request in a scripting block. Using the basic fetch() function, CORS is preventing it to work. Using a CORS proxy like https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/ isn’t an option because I don’t want to send sensitive data through this service. What’s the best way to fix this? Best Dominik

I have a table with a list of employees.I have another table of projects and roles that the employee may be assigned to, for example in the project table we have a column for PM, Co-PM, Lead Analyst, Analyst 1, Analyst 2. I want to count the number of times each employee is assigned a role in the projects table. In Excel and Google it is a simple =COUNTIF(‘Project’!$P$2:$V$87,A1), where column A is the employee column in the employee table, but there is no COUNTIF function in Airtable… I have also noticed that for every link I have made to the employee table I get a column in the employee table called “Project” or “Project 2” or “Project 3” and each cell has the Project ID from the Project Table. I have tried to make a formula column called “Workload” and use the formula COUNT({Project},{Project 2},{Project 3},{Project 4},{Project 5},{Project 6},{Project 7}) However this returns 0, because the links are not numeric references they are text references.Using COUNTA just counts the num

I’ve seen versions of this post, but not this specific issue, and I can’t ever get Airtable support to answer my help requests so putting it out there to see if anyone has a fix! In the “Next Renewal Date Calc” field, I want to add 90 days to the adjacent date in the “Current Period Start Date” field, but only if there is data in that record. Otherwise, I’d like the “Next Renewal Date Calc” field to be blank. However - it appears I’ve got one of two options. Don’t do an if / then statement, just do a date add formula in Next Renewal Date Calc, and then it shows an error in the records that don’t have an adjacent Current Period Start. However, it shows the date formatted for human eyeballs. Write an if / then statement, which returns data as expected, leaving dates only in the fields with an adjacent Current Period Start date. However, it changes the date to a very unfriendly format, and does not allow me to change the format (“Your result type is not a number or a date. Formatting

Hi, I have 2 databases that are used in the context of restaurant management for inventory tracking, valuation : Database 1) A list of products that I am likely to buy (ingredients such as butter, milk) Database 2) A list of purchases Since the unit price of these items changes often, I want to track the valuation of my stock. So on data base 2) I have : Column A) Order number (i.e : #12584) B) A linked field that allows me to select a single item from database 1) (i.e : butter or milk) C) A number field in which I indicate a number of items bought (2 or 3) D) A currency field in which I indicate the unit price (€2,50 or €3) E) A formula/currency field which calculates the total expenses for the item (i.e €2,50*3 items = €7,50) In my first database, I would like to add, for each field (each item), a valuation of my stocks thanks to my purchases tracker, and another column giving a cost per unit average : i.e on 01/01 I bought one unit of butter at a unit price of 2€, on 02/01, I bought

Increment a Date - I want to calculate another field by adding 30-60-90 dates to a start date. Is that possible? I’ve tried using the DATETIME_FORMAT function - DATETIME_FORMAT({Start Date}+30,‘YYYY-MM-DD’) and with brackets around the 30

Good day all! New Airtable user here. I’m experimenting with Airtable Pro to gain some functionality over Google Calendar for planning complex jobs across multiple manufacturing departments within our facility. I’m using it as a glorified calendar and I’m trying to get over a couple hurdles I cannot figure out. I need to export about 12 different Google Calendars into Airtable, which I’m able to do by exporting each Calendar as an .ics file, and importing that file into Airtable. Here’s where I run into two MAJOR hurdles. I need to be sure I maintain the NAME of each Google Calendar as it’s imported into Airtable, into a field titled “Department”. For example, I have a Google Calendar named “Material Arrival”, and I have a department in the drop-down menu titled the same. However, when I import the .ics file, I do not get an option to map the Google Calendar’s name to any field. Nor do I seem to have an easy option to automatically set the Airtable field to say “Material Arrival” f

Hey Airtable community, Here’s my formula. The formula itself works, but I want to format the output as a currency. Why is Airtable saying it’s not a number? IF({Score} = 1, "75", IF({Score} = 2, "120", IF({Score} = 3, "180", IF({Score} = 4, "240", IF({Score} = 5, "225" ) ) ) ) ) Any help is much appreciated! With warm regards, Alex

Morning all. I have a base I’m working on that calculates overtime, It also compares the overtime shift worked to an employee’s scheduled shift. I have a set of DURATION fields for each employee - Mon Start, Mon End, Tues Start, Tues End… for all 7 days of the week. Based on the day of the week our OT shift works, it shows the appropriate day’s shift. I’m pulling the start date of an event from one table (Overtime Events), the employee’s normal shift from another table (Employee Data), and the calculation is in a 3rd table (OT Shift Data). I’m trying to concatenate the DATE ONLY from when an overtime shift begins, and the DURATION field from the employee’s info, to create one date field I can use for other calculations. None of the date/time formulas seem to give me the results I’m looking for. Can anyone please offer any advice?

I am trying to push multiple values in a look-up table at once to a single update field. So far I am filtering the record, finding the IDs of the values in one of the values. Pulling out specific ones and then I am not sure what to do to update multiple values inside of a new field with a look-up table. Note, I didn’t copy and paste properly. The syntax is not the problem, the problem is that I do not know how to get the multiple look-up values to update. //// CODE BELOW testID = “recZnhmuRKPJEvVE0” let t_results = base.getTable(“results”)// let thisrecord_as = await t_results.selectRecordsAsync(); let thisrecord = thisrecord_as.records.filter(f_record => f_record.getCellValueAsString(“cli_res_id”) ==testID ); for (i=0; i<thisrecord.length; i++) { let this_spec = thisrecord[i].getCellValue(“Input_Look_Up_Field”) let this_fm_id = thisspec.id var pushval = { fields: { "UpdateField": [{id: this_fm_id}] } } } if (pushUpdates == 1) { await t_Client_results.updateRec

I have a Scenes Table with records listing each scene (Scene Name) to be shot for a video (Video Title). Once the Scene Names are all listed they go to a Shots Table where shots for each scene are created. In the Shots Table each record is based on the Shot Number. I have a checkbox field (Shot?) that I check when that shot has been filmed. Filmed scenes get sent to an Archive View when that checkbox field is checked. What I’d like is an automation that checks my (Shot?) field in the Scenes Table when all shots for that scene have been checked in the Shots Table and entered the Archive view. For example, in the screenshot below when the shots listed in the (Shots) field enter the Archive view in the Shots Table the (Shot?) checkbox gets checked. If a trigger tied to ALL shots entering Shots Table archive view is problematic, I’d settle for when any shot enters the archive view for a scene, it triggers the checkbox for that scene in the Scenes Table. Thanks for your help.
