Inherit location from related record

Posted by Rollbase User on 19-Dec-2010 23:11

Hi Guys, is there a way to tell a record that it should inherit its 'location' value from a related record? eg. order record inherit from customer record At the moment, I am doing it with a 'on create' trigger, but when the server is busy, and the triggers time out - I'm having records which are created with the location of the logged in user instead.

Currently if you create a record from Related List and do not include LDF controls on New Record page LDF values from parent record will be copied. However I'm not sure whether this is right solution.

You are right. I had to unselect 'use location for logged in user' in the field attributes for location field, and then it started using the related record instead. Thank you.

1. New LDF record will inherit LDF attributes from current user (this can be turned off by editing LDF fields)
2. Otherwise new LDF record will inherit attributes from parent record (if created from Related Records List)
