Here’s puzzle I cannot seem to solve:
- There are tables Tasks and Clients.
- Each task can serve several Clients (1:n).
- In Tasks I set up three columns: clients (the names of the clients as foreign keys; if multiple then comma separated), clients_arr (the names of the clients as an array), clients_rel (the multi relation to the table Clients linked to clients_arr.
This setup is working nicely when adding a new task:
(translate “Bewohner” with “client”)
But when I edit a task it’s looking differently:
I only see the selected clients. That’s ok, as long as I don’t want to change them. The settings for the Choice component are like this:
(translate “Bewohner_rel” to “clients_rel”)
Since the component is bound to the multi relation column only the selected clients are shown. Great.
Or not. Because how to select an additional client? I can remove a client by clicking on it, but i cannot add another one. When adding the Task I see all clients from the table and can select the relevant one. But when editing I cannot bin the component to the table. Then all clients are shown - but the ones selected are not highlighted like when adding a Task.
What am I doing wrong? Where is my understanding lacking? I’d like the edit screen look like the screen for adding a Task (first image).
Any ideas?
I’m very sure. Hm…
