Go to Related Record in Portal with multiple layouts

[Blake Lucas]

Hey all,

Using: Portals, Go to related record, Scripts, If/Else Statements

Background: In a portal... I currently use a script to go to its related record in another window with LayoutA.

Looking to do: I now have multiple layouts that I need to go, depending on Field1.

Details: So if Field1 = "John" I want it to go to LayoutA

If Field2 = "Betty", I want it to go to LayoutB

If Field3 = "George", I want to go to LayoutC

In a regular Script I have dont this and make it go to those layouts with no issue, but I am struggling to do this in a portal. So if anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

Thanks!!

You need to do this in two steps: first go to related record using any layout of the portal table; then select the layout appropriate for the record's type.

The second step could be called by a OnRecordLoad script trigger - so it would work for "regular" browsing as well.

Thank you very much... I hadnt thought of doing that way, but it works. Thank you.

It's not the only way to do it: you could also calculate the target layout within the GTRR step. But then you would have to do the same thing again for browsing the table.
