Overview

A record picker links entries from one database to another, so you can see related information in one place. Think of it like linking two pieces of a puzzle, instead of copying data from one table to another, you just point to it. For example, you have a Projects database and a Clients database. With a record picker, you can link a project to a client without retyping any client info. Everything stays connected and up-to-date automatically. Record Picker Intro Record pickers are great for:
  • Keeping your data organized
  • Avoiding duplicate entries
  • Making it easy to navigate between related records
