 | Philipp Matuschka (MMB) 4/14/2013 10:40:26 AM I raised a similar suggestion a while back.
|
 | Leo Howell 9/27/2013 5:43:49 PM This is a major efficiency feature...there are many cases where a user wants to display a set of records and move through them one by one.
|
 | Mike Ryan 11/18/2013 3:39:06 PM This would be a huge time saver for myself and our staff.
|
 | Rafael Muñiz 2/11/2014 3:24:33 PM Please consider the next/back record buttom. A must!
|
| Mike Ryan 2/11/2014 3:29:05 PM This function would save my office a significant amount of time and seems a natural progression given all of the excellent upgrades constantly implemented by the teamdesk staff. I hope they will consider making this much needed upgrade.
|
 | rishi uttam 11/14/2014 6:15:08 AM Oh Boy, Yes this should not be too hard in a .net environment. Lots of VB applications has this built in, including Access and should not be too difficult to translate to the web.
|
 | Rick Cogley 3/10/2017 8:06:35 PM In-line edit works for certain cases where you'd use prev and next buttons, but, if the information is something you really need a full screen for, having these on the edit form would be a welcome addition. Also, a simple keyboard shortcut for them, like arrows, would be really helpful.
|
 | basenine 3/11/2017 6:29:23 AM I reckon I could make some xhtml buttons for you that would replicate this function.
Use URLRoot() .... and Sum(RecordId(),1) .... for NEXT record and ..........,-1) for previous
I'll send through some code tomorrow if it works
|
| Rick Cogley 3/11/2017 6:54:41 AM hi basenine - yeah, I'd imagined that, but wonder if RecordId() is always contiguous, allowing for that math operation. Also, I suppose sorting has an impact too.
Assuming your [Id] is an and not prefixed, you create a [Number Id] field that changes your auto-number Id into an integer. Then you can get the last N number of records by creating a self:self relation, then creating a summary column like "Id Number of Nth Record", which for N=30 would be:
* Function: Index
* Sort by: Id Number order by Descending
* Index: by number 30
* Value column: Id Number
That gives you a set of 30 no matter what their Ids are. Then you create a formula check like:
[Use in XYZ view?]
Formula:
[Id Number] >= [Id Number of Nth Record]
I have not tried it, but, I wonder could we not get the next record in either direction, in this manner.
The problem I see with this is, what match condition to use on the self:self relation. If you let it search all the records, I imagine it'd be extra slow.
|
| Rick Cogley 3/11/2017 7:06:47 AM your [Id] is an and not => your [Id] is not
|
| basenine 3/11/2017 12:08:26 PM Trouble will be if a record is deleted....
This is probably why TD haven't got a solution for it as well
|
| Philipp Matuschka (MMB) 3/11/2017 1:11:27 PM While the deleted record is a challenge it's no reason not to do it
|
 | Philipp (JFDI/Teamdesk) 3/13/2017 4:00:29 AM The other thing is that it is not just about the NEXT or PREVIOUS record in the entire database, but the NEXT or PREVIOUS record in the current view, obeying any current filtering, grouping or sorting.
I have no idea how the internals of TeamDesk deal with this. I know in the past when I wrote code at that level in a system called MAPPER we held the result of the search in memory which allowed us to do this kind of stepping forward and back.

>The problem I see with this is, what match condition to use on the self:self relation. If you let it search all the records, I imagine it'd be extra slow.
I wonder if you could create a Formula - Date field with value Between([Date Created],100,-100)...? might need some tweaking
Then match condition against that...will show records for 200 days
|
| Rick Cogley 3/22/2017 6:37:13 PM That should work, if the assumption is that there are recent records in terms of date.
It does not work on stale data, so you'd need next on a record id for that, I think.
|
| basenine 3/22/2017 6:39:05 PM Yes - my thought behind it was if you're not using it every day or at least once a month, PREVIOUS/NEXT probably isn't your biggest priority (and there wouldn't be many records to filter through)
|
| basenine 3/22/2017 6:40:19 PM It'd be Between(ToDate([Date Created]),100d, -100d) too probably
|
| Rick Cogley 3/22/2017 7:00:04 PM Could be Days(100), I'd have to test it.
This Prev/Next function is really useful for something like a glossary. It might be loaded and never edited (so, dates are not so good for this).
When people learn the terms, they want to loop through the terms without too much fiddling. A one click or one keypress solution is best.
|
 | Luison Lassala 4/2/2018 5:45:04 AM This functionality is available in other online databases. SalesForce, for instance, has an app called "ListBrowse" which allows users select a group of records from a List View and then display the form for each of the records, browsing back and forth by clicking on arrows on the form. Keyboard shortcuts (e.g. PgUp/PgDn) are not yet available on this app.
It would enhance TeamDesk's functionality enormously!
|
 | Pierre 6/1/2022 4:32:29 AM Dear All
Many users of TeamDesk database process list of records:
- They display a list (a view),
- Pick a record which they consult in view or edit mode,
- Go the next record
...
Each time, between two records, they go back to the main list.
This works very well.
It would be faster if there was a possibility to :
- save and go to the next record (while in edit mode)
- go to the previous / next record (while in view mode)
Users ask for this a lot.
Kind regards
Pierre

| Philipp Matuschka (MMB) 6/4/2022 3:46:42 AM Fully agree
@staff a similar request exists already. You may want to merge them
|
 | Slava Shinderov 9/26/2022 6:52:39 AM Merged with:
1531 - Next Record

 | Robert P. 12/16/2022 4:56:22 PM Working Great! Thank you for Implementing.
I came up with a bit of code to cycle through the tables and activate the New Prev|Next functionality to all the table and roles.
Having 1 database with 10 Tables and 5 roles is clicking on 15 checkmarks is 150 clicks.
I prefer to let the Computer do the work.
Message me if you interested.
Cheers!
|
 | Luison Lassala 12/16/2022 5:10:54 PM Robert, that would have been very handy!! I had to 'hire' an Intern to configure it in all the tables for all the relevant roles in ALL my clients' databases!!! Took him several hours!
But do share the code anyway, if you can (luison@bedrocksuccess.ie)
|
| Rick Cogley 12/16/2022 6:00:58 PM Hi Robert, I’d love to have your code as well. I can’t see a way to message you in here so I’ll also leave my email address - Rick@Cogley.jp
Thank you in advance.
|
| Pierre 12/17/2022 4:16:49 AM hello Robert
Thanks a lot for proposing this
Would you be so kind as to send me the code to pierre (at) youtom.io
Kind regards
Pierre

 | Patricio Bustos 12/18/2022 7:34:33 AM Hi Robert, if you can send the code to patricio.bustos.plaza@gmail.com
Tks a lot! ;)

| Luison Lassala 12/20/2022 4:38:35 AM Displaying PREV/NEXT
|
| Luison Lassala 12/20/2022 4:40:26 AM my previous message got truncated...
Displaying PREV/NEXT buttons now works perfectly well with Detail Views also: extremely useful!!
Thanks Kirill
