Re: Pushing Multiple Records with Escalation
well if you are doing it with an escalation you do not need a radio button, just have an escalation that fires off at a certain time and modifies a field on your form, like a display form such as Z1DAction. Pass a value like Start Record Creation, then have filter guides that will go through and create multiple records. They way I have always done that is with a integer field and increment it down in the filter guide each time you create the new record. Just make sure you loop through that filter guide.

Re: Pushing Multiple Records with Escalation
Hi Kevin, I have an Easaclation for adding multiple records. and have one filter to add new records (which works for a single entry addition.) and then i have one filter guide which calls filter. Could u please tell me step by step procedure for that, coz i have tried every thing and still facing the problem for using temp field.

Re: Pushing Multiple Records with Escalation
I think we may be missing understanding a step in what you are attempting to do. In your form is there a table field that you are using to create the multiple records? Maybe a little bit more of an explanation of your base form and the push to create the multiple records will help us help you.

Re: Pushing Multiple Records with Escalation
basically you need a escalation that starts the process, a filter that sets a integer field on how many records you want to create, a filter that calls the filter guide ( could be the same filter that sets the integer field), and then a couple of filters, one that checks the interger to make sure it is more than 0, one that creates the record, and then one that subtracts the integer. You must also loop through the filter guide to keep on creating the record.

Re: Pushing Multiple Records with Escalation
Clicking a radio button is a client side action. Escalations are server side so you can not combine escalation and radio button click. This has to be done through ActiveLinks. However you can write a filter to do pushfields-create new entry and then trigger this filter via escalation or via radio button upon commit. Ex: Form A is the source form and Form B is where you want entries to be created. Write an escalation on Form A to set a tempfield:TriggerPushFilter Write a filter on Form A to push data to Form B with RunIF ( 'tempfield' = TriggerPushFilter) However in your case you want multiple entries to be created and if the data is from a table field on Form A, you need to perform table walk. Tablewalk can be performed via ActiveLink Guide(for radio button), or filter guide(for escalation). please follow the below tutorials on how to do the table walk. _http://www.buoyantsolutions.net/PUBLIC/Community/ ALGuide2_viewlet_swf.html _http://www.buoyantsolutions.net/PUBLIC/Community/ ALGuide_viewlet_swf.html On Jul 8, 10:26 am, ahsan raza ahsanahsan1...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Ar Listers, I am looking to add multiple records/entries from one form to another using a radio button option, So whenever i click radion button, it should add all teh new entries (more than 20) to the other form. 1) How would i do with an escalation for some specific time . 2) How can i use filters and filter guides for the same action.
