I want to create workflow solutions between an office and the customers with an offline FMGO solution which talks when cell signal is good. Users will only see their records obviously. Example function: Office sends an opportunity to filtered customers meeting a criteria on the customers position. The customer declines or accepts . Container data would need to be exchanged, updated. Market pricing would update through the day and be pushed to customers. I assume this sort of solution would involve buying a max number of concurrent connections for FMS or does it bypass? Thanks in advance

Hey thanks for that! I have had a temporary brain failure and forgot global fields were local! and I hadn't emptied it when I accessed it on go so the last user selected field did show up which got me worried! Clear now!

Hi All, Please be gentle. New to filemaker and FM forum! Did a search and didn't see any items on this! which probably tells me I have gone down a dark lonely road here! This is my first FM database. I have setup a layout with a list of items. I want to see the list, select a row and view detail of a selected item on the same layout to the right ( in pro at least). I elected to use the method I had seen posted somewhere along the lines of creating a global selected field in the principle TO for the sibling TO. For example : a customer has many orders. The detail is then presented to the left of the portal list. I have a slider with portals in each panel based on occurrences of the selected record TO. The whole relationship tree has built up off this "Selected" TO . It works ... but I smell a rat? i went down this path because I initially saw a lot of stuff on portals in popovers / popovers in portals etc not working out! I am starting to think popovers and sliders / tabs in popovers may work and I have made this too hard. I also see an issue with this "Selected" TO not working in a multi user environment as one user would change the "Selected" ID in the principle TO and this would change another users selected record ? Any tips would be appreciated !
