If you use Filemaker's tabs and place the same portal in each and every tab they will all show the same data since they are actually all showing the same record/s from the same related file depending on data entered into the same originating record.

When using Filemaker's tabs the originating table is always only one and the same table. So the data displayed is always based on the same data in the parent record

I think you need to take a close look at how relations work when used in portals placed in Filemaker's tabs. I had a pretty hard time getting this my self once but finally got it by creating a test file that did contain nothing but some tables a tab layout and some portals.

Kind regards

I have a portal row within different tabs, all the same portal fields. Now, when I enter data into one field, it goes throughout all the portals. How do I make it so they are not connected?

thanks!
