Saving changes from one table into another

[Adrian_Enz]

Hello everybody

I’m looking for a solution to create a history of user changes.

Let’s say I have a table and when a user makes a change in this table, there will be a new row created in a seperate table with the information about what has changed, which user changed it and on what date / time.

Is something like this possible in AppSheet?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Greetings
Adrian

With a couple of tricks, yes it’s possible. Check out my community sample app from my portfolio and look for older post. Provided you cannot find it, drop me a line.

Hello LeventK

Thank you so much for your response. Work has been pretty hectic the last couple weeks so I wasn’t able to have a look at it.

I did have a look under the hood of your app now, but I couldn’t find what you are pointing out.

Could you elaborate further on it?

Thanks in advance.
Adrian

Hello, I’m interested in this as well. For context, I have a table of enquiries with a status column. Users are asked to go into each query to change the status (new - info gathering - demo - decisionmaking - sold - lost). I would like to track when the status is being changed each time. Ultimately, I want to be able to calculate the time it took between statuses and from new enquiry to sold. I initially thought to add new columns to the enquiries table but others will be using the table so want to keep it fairly uncluttered. So my thinking is to create a new table to document these changes and do the calculations. How would I go about that? Thank you.
