Cannot add new records in portal

[john9210]

In the attached file I cannot add new records in the portals: I get the error that the fields are not modifiable. I use the field Match as the match fields. This is a calculation field set to 1 so the portal displays all the related records. Why is this happening?

You may want to back up and tell us what the file is suppose to do.  What you have is not set up at all correctly.

Seems like it's a sandbox for trying out something.

I'm trying to display records from two tables. I want each portal to show all the records and to be able to create new records in the portals.

Just change the match fields to number type with auto calculated value 1

The match fields are number type

Thanks Fran_g, that did the trick.
