Infomaker Custom Tab / Local Table

Hello All,

I'm not sure how to write this clearly but I have a monster of a custom screen with a bunch of calculations (computed fields) based on other computed fields.  Rather than having to recreate these monsters each time I'm creating a report, I'd like to save them back to the local table.  But I'm not sure how to do that.  Do I have the option in Infomaker to use a computed field as a column in the database?  I'm not seeing it. 

Any guidance is a appreciated.

Thank you!

  • All great ideas.  Lots of fields for parameters.  It’s my first custom tab for input and there are over 140 fields.  (internal, external and notes for all expenses related to a show)  

     

    However I have never created a web page,  it sounds like it may be time to learn.  Recommended reading?

     

    Anyway, thanks for all of the input.  Of course I should have talked to you all first, now I’m on deadline….

    You could also go the route of a web page as a custom tab.  Then you will have all the control that you will need or want.  You can update date based on user events.

    I don’t think so…. Some of the fields used in the calculations are based on input from the user. For example, to calculate the budgeted revenue amount:

    How about making it a report, with all of the user input fields as parameters?
