Hello All,
Looking forward meeting at 3PM Wednesday.
Plan for this event is to work on some projects/solutions. We will walk through ideation, planning and implementation with the goal of getting...
Forum Discussion
Thanks Jim! I'm planning on being there. I know my biggest hurdle recently has been dealing with integrations between our ERP and Quickbase, so I'd love any feedback from the group on what tools/techniques have worked well for others. Other than that I'm excited to just keep getting ideas from everyone.

We have an agenda!
Between Elena and Jen we should have some work to do. Since this is going to be some learning and idea sharing, expect it to take longer than usual.
Elena and Jen, please bring a device so you can screen share your environment on the big screen and Teams. The first thing we'll want to do is talk about the entire process from start to finish and then we can come up with solutions.
I think this will be fun! See you all tomorrow.
P.S. you can park in the parking lots surrounding the building.

------------------------------We had a good meeting yesterday. Elena, Jen, Lee, Eric, Jim, Diego & Anabel attended. We looked at a Pipeline Elena was stuck on involving FormStack and the limitation of search results greater than 100. After some discussion, the recommendation was to create multiple search's with filters and then use multiple merge fields in FormStack to concatenate the results. We are looking forward to the results next month.
Next we talked about integrations with SQL and Human Resources data alignment. Jen wants to bring HR data into Quickbase through automation. The recommendation was to purchase QuNect as the optimal solution but it requires a lot of structure. Next option was to use PowerQuery to get the data from both databases and then use macros to identify changes and update the Quickbase table, semi-manually. The second option was seen as more approachable and we'll see the final results maybe soon.
After that we discussed Quickbase features in general, beta opportunities, forms. Then we went to Steeplejack and continued the conversation over a pint.
Overall it was a good meeting and we are looking forward to next month.
