Hi all

Appreciate if someone help me out. I have a database block in my form and its style is Forms not tabular.
When I insert record in that form and then save it then it will create a single record in table XYZ, now my requirement is that when I save record then in database table more than 1 record save instead of 1 record by using some condition like below:

block name=job

If :job.fine_amt > 0 then 
insert into XYZ 
values
(all forms values)
end if;
--------------
If :job.sutt_amt > 0 then 
insert into XYZ 
values
(all forms values)
end if;

Thanks

Regards
Shumail

There's no difference in those two statements; in both cases you are inserting the same values.

By the way, what do you call "all forms values"? COMMIT will save all form values anyway.

Can't you use a simple multitable insert? INSERT ALL WHEN ...

Doubt it. Looks like OP wants to insert additional records into the same table the block is based on.
Since forms will insert the main record from the block anyway an additional insert in post-insert should be all that's needed.

If not then the OP will need to explain the problem in more detail.

Thanks for the replies, as cookiemonster suggested, I use post insert trigger to insert additional records in my required table. Thanks for your help
