Is it possible to have a script that will read several fields from a form and insert that information into a portal? I saw a bunch of field related commands but nothing for portals. However they may be one in the same, I thought I should ask.

Simple example, you fill out the fields for a check payment, then click pay and have it added to the Portal, at the same time update the account balance.

Yes. It is possible.

You need to use the Go to Portal script step.

For example, you could place a button on the form and the portal below the button (or anywhere on the form... uh layout)

under the button you'll want use some script like this:

go to Portal Row [ Select ; Last ]

# checks table might be what is in the portal

Set Field [checks::name; checkView::gCheckName]

and so on

# to put focus back on the layout - rather than being stuck in the

# portal you probably should do a call like this:

Go to Field [checkView::gCheckName]

or some field that is not in the Portal.

Hope that helps,

Sincerely,
