Hello
I am posting again here hoping to get better directions to achieve what i need, i will explain everything again (posted on standard support first).
I have to construct an application who bassically needs to achieve 2 things (There is more to be done but this is like the core of my problem, if i figure this out i can then start to work with the rest on my own):
- Creates an entry for a customer (with all his data, name, address, etc.) No big deal here, i got that working.
- Adds its yearly and monthly sales (and some other data but lets just stick with his sales). HERE is my problem:
The time dimension is what i need to think about, now sophist told me:
This will allow me to achieve the following?:
When i create a new record, (a new sales period of a customer) i need to select a year then the month (cascading dropdown maybe?) because i will need to input data on (for example) year: 2010 month: march. So after i select those 2 options then i will be presented with the fields corresponding to that time reference.
Please bear with me i am no fabrik expert, any extra info you need i will gladly provide it.
Thank you for your time

I would use a repeat group for each year with a year field and 12 fields for the months.
