Hi All, I have a products table: db.define_table('product', Field('product_name'), Field('active_ingredient'), Field('batch_no'), Field('expiry_date','date'), Field('product_type', requires=IS_IN_SET(PRODUCTTYPES),default= PRODUCTTYPES[0]), Field('withholding_period','integer'), Field('ESI_withholding','integer'), Field('qty','integer'), Field('date_purchased','date', default = request.now), Field('purchased_from', requires=IS_IN_DB(db,'company.company_name','%(company_name)s')), (auth.signature), format='%(product_name)s %(batch_no)s')
I can edit the product with the following controller: def edit_product(): product_id = request.args(0,cast=int) product = db.product(product_id) or error() if not product.created_by==me: product.created_by.writable = True else: product.created_by.writable = False form = SQLFORM(db.product,product, showid=False, deletable=(product.created_by==me)).process(onsuccess=auth.archive) if form.accepted: session.flash="Edit Successful" redirect(URL('products')) return locals() At times I need to add new products but only some of the fields change E.G. batch_no, expiry_date, and supplier. In short if need to add similar item that I already have in the products table thanks Anthony -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
