    Extracting Last Repeating Table Entry

    Hi, I've just downloaded qRules and I'm not exactly sure how to accomplish what I need.   

    Goal: I need to take the last entry for up to 10 different repeating tables and have them copied/set value into a unique row in a single repeating table in a different view.

    Said another way:  I have 10 repeating tables.  If a specific repeating table field isn't blank I need to take specific fields in that row and populate a single row in another repeating table located in a different view.

     Example: The last row in repeating table 1 would populate a single row in the Main View repeating table

                   The last row in repeating table 2 would populate a single row in the Main view repeating table

    I think I need to use the Set Value rule but I'm not exactly sure how to make that happen.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    D

    Hi Daren,

    qRules can do this.  It's a complex scenario and we don't have documentation on the exact steps.  I just sent you an email though with my contact information so you can call me or email me if you are interested in learning more about how my team could support you on this project.

    Hi D, I thought maybe you could set the value of first or last without qRules, but turns out you can't. You can bind the row to a field but then user has to enter manually. The only way to specifically set the field is with qRules. Thanks to Jimmy Rishe for setting me straight! Gotta love qRules! :) Patrick

    Patrick, thanks for taking the time to try and help.  I'm sure there will be other questions as I explore more InfoPath stuff.  :-)

    Re: Extracting Last Repeating Table Entry

    HI

     I am trying to find a way to kick off multiple IPC server events for each entry in a repeating table. In more detail, I am looking to start an Infopath form workflow for each username that is entered into a repeating table.

    I have read up about this and I have heard that it is not possible to pass xml directly into an IPC server event but is there another way round?

    Currently, I am looking at setting up a username input datafield, a row count datafield (that will store the number of entries in the repeating table), and a row number datafield that will be iterated in a loop until it reaches the row count. The loop will have set and reset events either side of the IPC server event to effectively create this loop. This should mean that I can start an IPC server event for each entry.

    However, this does not seem a particularly neat way of doing this so I was wondering if anyone has done anything similar and could give me any pointers...
