One of my fields is a link to another table. I’d like end-users who are using the Form to add data to be able to create new records in the linked table but from the primary table data entry form.
I want my coworkers to enter data through forms, as these allow me to make some fields mandatory for them to fill out among other reasons. However, as soon as I have a linked table and the record does not yet exist, they cannot fill out the form. I would really like this to work!
If the “Add new record” button was added to Forms that would a big improvement for me, so that I don’t have to force users through another form just to add the option they wanted to type.
@Matt_Bush any updates? I am exploring AirTable for my organization. The idea is to basically share my workload with another team so that I am not stretched so thin. The trick is getting this other team to do the work. Without being able to add new records to other tables in the same base from the Form view, they’ll never do it. It won’t work. It looks like this is a repeatedly requested feature. Since it can be done from grid view, I don’t understand why it can’t be done from Form view. Please help!
