Hot-Linking References
How To Move Records With A Button
This app was evolved from the (One-to-Many References) sample app
The purpose of this app is to demonstrate how you can move records from one reference to another, using a push-button type of interface.
-------------------------------------------
The general flow is as follows:
1) You tap an action on the parent, flagging that as the "destination"
2) You navigate to the child records, where an action is now available for your to "hot-link" that record to the destination
- This action could change the parent ref of the record, moving it to the destination; or
- It could copy the details from the record into another one, ref connected to the destination; or
- Anything else you can come up with! (^_^)
3) You then return to the destination, and un-flag the system (turning off the system)
