GoToRecord/Request/Page (by field value)

[MPFogarty]

I've been experimenting with the GoToRecord/Request/Page(by field value) script step. I'm assuming that you can set a global field with the ID number of a particular record and then return the user to that record at some later time.

I have not been able to get this script step to work in this fashion however. Do you have any suggestions?

The Go to Record script step goes to the Record Number in the current found set (i.e. first record, second record, 43rd record). The actual record selected depends upon the found set and sort order. It does NOT go to a record by Record ID.

You can do what you wish, but not with this script step. Create fields:

gRecordID (global, number)

RecordID (calculation, number, indexed) = Status (Current Record ID)

Create a self relationship (Rel) with gRecordID <---> RecordID

To go to a particular record use the script

SetField(gRecordID, 5) <--- or set this field by manual entry

Go to Related Record (Rel) <--- if you only want this record in the found set, check the "show only related records" option
