Add Multiple Records at Once

Maybe you’re not the one-at-a-time type. If you want to add or edit multiple records in one stroke, QuickBase can oblige.

To add multiple records at once:

  1. Display a table report of records in the table you want to add records to, such as List All.

  2. On the upper left of the list, click the Grid Edit link.

    The table may not look that different, but magic has occurred. QuickBase has made the entire table editable. You can change any value directly from this report. This feature’s a handy way to make changes to several records at once or to add several new records in a stroke. (Read more about Grid Edit.)

  3. Add records in one of two ways:

  4. When you’re done, click Save & Done.

Tip - Create a GRID EDIT report.
You can create reports that display in Grid Edit mode. This is handy for creating pages that let your users enter lots of records at once. For instance, say they need to enter multiple timecards at the end of the week. To do so, create a new report and make its type Grid Edit.
