This is brilliant, and really helpful, thank you so much! I guess the one issue I am running into is usability. Below are screens and a link to what I have set up in the test app. This app is rather simple compared to what I will have to use later with many different categories of things, and potentially long lists.
From what I am understanding of your suggestion, is that each line in the repeating group will need to have it’s own ‘save’ button. If there are 30 different lines, it can be cumbersome and time consuming to hit save that many times.
The functionality I’d like to get to is having one button saved outside of the repeating group, which saves the information inside of it. Currently, I am not seeing a function in the work flows for creating multiple things at once.
In this image, the button in the cell is set to add +1 to the product, which will give us the quantity:
How it looks in action:
I can’t get the ‘save order’ button to create a new thing in the work flows. This is getting back to the original problem in my post above: Once I have this list, how to save it? Before it was as a list, but I think your solution of having things of type ‘line item’ is a much better solution. However, I still have a list, and would like to click one button to get the individual line items saved.
thank you so much for your feedback!!
Working on tinkering with the ‘schedule and action’ function as described in this post to see if it might be a solution. Though at an initial glance, this seems a bit complex as well.
