Quick Update System | How to Update Parent from Child Update | AppSheet Explained
Are you trying to update a parent record from a child record?
Trying to figure out how to use references with the Quick Update System?
In this video, I walk you through how to update the Parent record from a Child record's update event.
1) First you need to know about, and install, the Quick Update System in your Parent table:
Learn more here: https://community.appsheet.com/t/quic...
2) Next you need to create the Ref Update action on the Child table
3) After that, create a composite action to hold that Ref Update action
This is ultimately optional - but it future-proofs your build
4) Finally, put your Ref Update action (or stack action) inside the Save Event for the Child_Table_Form view
