GTRR or Find

[imoree]

Hello Everyone;

I have been working on a file and was just playing around with GTRR & FIND - I have attached the file for anyone to

review;

THere are no safety checks, etc, just doing some testing.

Should i use the GTRR or Find method? or is it just a matter of doing the same thing another way.

thanks

Same end result, different way to get there. As you found, the GTRR script was shorter.

The GTRR step is the one to go with in the scenario you showed. Use the find method when you don't have a portal/relationship already setup to find the correct related records.

P.S. you don't need to Go to Field step before a Set Field step

P.P.S. one thing to note about the GTRR step is that it will not go to the related layout if there are no records. Imagine if you used that step, then deleted the found count immediately after, trying to delete the related records. Always test for an error after GTRR. (I know you specifically said there was no error testing here, I'm just pointing out what to test for when you do start using it)

THanks dansmith65.

It is a shorter script, just was wondering. Also thanks for the set field. IN testing it didnt work, but maybe there was another issue.

i have sinced checked and you are right, it did work no issues.

i have since done more work on this and have been able to omit records ( such as null, or empty fields in any record)< but don't see a way to do that in GTRR method. Will keep checking though
