Hi there,
I am new to Airtable (last week or so) and considering replacing the Google sheets I am currently using with it. While working through several tutorials, I was pleasantly surprised at the ease of use. I am, however, concerned about whether an elegant solution could be developed in Airtable.
I manage a small fleet of vehicles in 5 different operations at a gold mine down here in South Africa. We capture the following data daily for each vehicle:
Each vehicle’s information is captured separately in different tabs in Google Sheets.
Ideally, I want an app that will prompt the admin ladies when they access the system to complete the previous day’s data. I had a look at using forms, but generally, the grid format should work best. However, I don’t want them to have access to more than one day’s data on any given day.
Can anyone confirm whether I can create such a solution in Airtable? I am also happy to pay for consulting and will share our current spreadsheet solution with anyone willing to assist.
Thanks and take care,
Jacques

Welcome to Airtable Community !
I have a similar setup for my company to track daily what is happening with our equipment. However, my solution was to make a form that feeds the data into a table, so no one has access to the table except me. This table is linked to several other tables where I can (for example) check how many days a specific equipment has worked this month.
Would be glad to take a look at it for you. Feel free to contact me on mohamedswellam@hotmail.com

Hi Mo,
Thank you kindly for responding. Your solution sounds exactly what I am looking for. I will send you an email shortly with the spreadsheet we are currently using.
Cheers,
