Duplicate a portal record problems

Featured Replies

I am trying to duplicate a portal record in FM11. I have come across a few questions.

From what I have read I can have a button in the portal trigger a script which will:

go to portal row[select; no dialog; get (portalRowNumber)]

Duplicate Record/Request

1)Unfortunately when I try to create a "go to portal row" script I need to specify ("First,Last,Next,Previous,Calculation)",

on a calculation of "get (portalRowNumber)" I get the error "This parameter is an invalid Get function parameter.".

Can someone please tell me why this isn't working? Am I not allowed to call get (portalRowNumber) in a script?

Also I used the work around:

Go to Portal Row [select;Next]

Go to Portal Row [select;Previous]

Duplicate Record/Request

2) Is this a safe work around? It seems to duplicate any record successfully, even if it is the first or last record. Clicking the "duplicate record" button on the next new record (which is empty) will create a duplicate of the my last record.

3) I also don't understand why there isn't a Go to Portal Row [select;Selected].

Why can't I just duplicate the portal record in the row in which my button resides, why does it have to be ("First,Last,Next,Previous,Calculation)"? This seems counter intuitive.

No, not go to portal row. You want to go to the related record (GTRR) and duplicate the related record.
