Re: Order Capture "ADD" from second table in order...

Hi I’m fairly new to Appsheet and having messed about with the Order Capture sample app, I’m trying to set up a way to ask a question in the “order details” form, where it allows me to add in a secondary form to choose from a list of accessories, then give me a subtotal based on the total of accessories added.

I can’t figure out a way to replicate the “ADD” “order details” to the “order” table. This would be really handy.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @HutchisonsCarpets You need to check if your Order details “Is Part Of” the Order.

To recreate the functionality of the order details to the order table - but for something new you want to add - create a new table to hold the data for this new form.

In it you’ll need to create a column that’s a reference to the order (like they have it in the sample app); when you set this as a ref in appsheet, it will create the same interface type you get from the order details.

More info on table references:

Hi, I’ve tried doing that and and all I get is a drop down of the reference that i’m linking it to. What I would like to do is to open up a new view to allow me to add the accessory, colour and size of it.

If it was like the add order_detail reference from the orders page, then I could add several accessories to the list.

I also clicked the “ispartof” and that hasn’t made a difference.

I’ve also added an “orderdetail ID” Column to the accessory table to see if that would link over. But it hasn’t helped.

Hmmmm… Perhaps at this point it’s best for someone on the app sheet team to take a look at your app.
