davidrichards Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 (edited) I am creating a database which will accept new orders and look to older, shipped orders and last names to see if the new order is from a prior customer. This will allow me to assign the prior customer ID number rather than a new one. The relationship is order_status="shipped" AND lastname = lastname. Unfortunately, it doesn't work. Only the lastname match seems to work, not the order_status=shipped. Any thoughts? I am using FMP 8.5 on a Mac.

Greg G Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 (edited) You just have your fields reversed in the relationship. Switch Status_is_Shipped and OrderStatus around. Since the OrderStatus is the variable field it needs to be the one that the portal is dependent on. I would also suggest that you use a global calc field instead of an auto-entered value. Just make the value of the calc "Shipped". Edited April 19, 2007 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
