Introduction: Easily link data across registers
Subtables help you connect related data from different registers, making it easier to track, manage, and report on key information.

What subtables do: Centralise and organise information

  • Pull in relevant data from other registers without duplication.
  • Choose how linked data is displayed, either as a single field or a table with multiple entries.
  • Use subtables for structured record-keeping, such as linking incidents to actions or hazards to safety reports.

Setting up a subtable: Connect data effortlessly

  • Create a register to store the linked data.
  • Add a subtable field in your primary register to pull in entries.
  • Choose how users interact with the data, whether they select existing records or create new ones on the spot.

Controlling access: Ensure the right people can see and edit data

  • Assign permissions so users can add, edit, or view linked entries as needed.
  • Use read-only access for users who need visibility but not editing rights.

Using sub tables in forms: A better way to input and view data

  • Link records with a simple selection process.
  • Customise how data appears to highlight key details.
  • Use info bubbles for quick insights without cluttering forms.

Conclusion: Simplify workflows and improve data consistency
Subtables help you link, manage, and access key information seamlessly, reducing manual effort and improving accuracy.
