Grouped Action with go to view

[Asheetbogo]

hi everyone,

i want to run a simple  "grouped action" as follows: copy some rows from one table (tasks) to another  )(Tasks2) and after this go to another view (Projects)

Action 1: copy some rows from table "tasks" to "tasks2" 

Action 2: goto View "Projects"

Action 3 (grouped Action) : Action 1  + Action 2

Action 1: works perfect

Action 2: works perfect

Problem Action Button for Action 3 (grouped action) is not visible, therefore grouped action cannot be executed ...

best thanks for any help in advance!

Actions with any navigation capabilities will not show in the "Bulk Selection" feature.   It will show on each individual row.  If the "Bulk Selection" capability is what you want, then you will need to find an alternative solution.  

For instance,  split the two actions.  Perform your "Bulk Selection" for the action that copies the rows.  Have the second action that goes to the "Projects" view show as an Overlay action.

hello WillowMobileSys - thank you so much for your quick reply!

is there any possibility to acchie the two steps (1., copy rows and 2. goto to another view ...) with  click on only 1 "action button"?

As mentioned above, you can use the Grouped actions as is on each individual row.  

If you want to perform the activity based on a selection of rows, Yes, I believe you can do it BUT it will take some implementation time.  You would need to:

1. build your own ability to select multiple rows.  For example, use an EnumList column that allows you select multiple rows.
2. Perform a "looping" set of actions that will iterate over the selected rows to do the row copies - Looping with Actions
3. Navigate to your "Projects" view
