I'm using a base to track my time on projects/tasks. I use these times to create estimates for clients and to create invoices. It's great to have the built in time tracking in Airtable, but I've made the mistake many times of walking away from my com...
If I’m remembering my FileMaker days correctly, I had the option to have a field filled by a formula/action, and I could then enter something into that field if I wanted to change the info.
For example, I’m working on an attendance database in which ...

Still working on this, and I seem to have a new problem. Or maybe I’ve uncovered a problem that’s been there all along. I have links that submit to a Google form and that auto-submits (to Airtable via IFTTT). I still have to close each window, but th...
