Database inserting blank record along with the real records

Hi there

Is anyone having this issue?

When adding record I find that a ‘ghost’ / blank record is being added to the database.

The application has three screens. The first screen has a button with the ‘Create’ action and links to the second from. On the second form another button updates this record with the user added data and links to the next form. On the last form the button does the same except it links to the first screen.

Any ideas on how to problem solve / trouble shoot this. I have check a dozen times and cannot seem to fix this issue.

Any ideas are really welcome…

Can you post a cloneable link?

Hi @KDHeard,

Few things to check:

  • check there are no on-screen-enter actions in any of these screens
  • check that forms have an action “update record”, not “create record”
  • if you’re creating record in Users collection, keep in mind that “sign up” action creates user record by itself.

Best,
Victor

FOUND! I know what I did wrong…

The duplicate record was being created by a button on another screen (!). A noob mistake - I had copied it from the main screen where the ‘create record’ button was and did not remove the action when I copied it.

Thank you all for the ideas and support on the issue!
