Bingo Board for Cabinet Shop Tasks

Featured Replies

I am trying to build something like a bingo board to act as a visual management tool for my cabinet shop.  This bingo board might be printed out on hard paper or could be electronically managed on an iPad.

I would like to have the field names show up as a column on the left side of the layout with the field contents displayed in a spreadsheet type format on the right.  

The image of each cabinet would derive from a repeating container field.  The value for each task would derive from scripts that are keyed to each cabinet type.  A sink base, for example, would not have any values in the drawer box category but a drawer bank would not show cookie trays.

When the bingo board is completely filled in the kitchen is done and ready to ship.

 

Is there any way to do something like this within Filemaker?

If you want it exactly that way, you could create what's known as a cross-tab report.  Searching the forums for cross tab report, or Google FileMaker cross tab report for ideas.

Thanks Steve.  That's the clue I needed.
