Designing a Record Detail View in ActivityInfo

Hi everyone,

My name is Timothy, and I recently joined the ActivityInfo team, focusing on documentation and building resources to help you get the most out of ActivityInfo.

Building on this roadmap post, we have just published a guide on designing a Record Detail View based on an Electronic Medical Records (EMR) Database Template.

This feature enables you to bring all information related to a record onto a single view that can be shared across teams.

By consolidating information in the Record Detail View, it reduces the need to navigate repeatedly across multiple forms and subforms when reviewing related records, making workflows more efficient and user-friendly.

Hi Timothy!

I’ve just make my tests with one or our form and I have a question: why we can’t see the calculated field? It is the same problem we have with the print view…

On the other hand, when you save your view, if you change the order of list and sort the records, this is not be saved. It remains the default one (“list by the record label”).

Finally, the reference fields are repeated many times in a strange way. (in this case, it is a subform)…

Thanks for your help

Hi Emanuele,

We’re indeed tracking a few bugs in this release, including the problem with calculated fields and reference fields with custom lookup configurations. The team is working on fixes now and hope to have fixes in the coming week or so.

Let us know if you run into anything else!

Hello Alex!
And thanks for working on the bugs. Many have been resolved.

However, i’m surprised i cannot order/sort a calculated table. There are no functions to do so and in the detail view, the user cannot request the table to be sorted in one way or another.
Would i be possible to develop an ORDERBY() or SORTBY() function?

Thanks in advance

Thank you, Alex. In addition, and thinking on the next webinar, I would suggest to delete the field description in the “record detail” view, just as in the record resume on the right of the form table. Bests,

Hi everybody and @Metawee

Can somebody help me to sort the date of the visit in the patient history (a calculated table) in the detail view (I’ve used the EMR database)?

Thanks
