3- each user can see his goods orders and edit it, and update status

4- other users can view the goods orders.

Hi ruba88,

1) You need to update the Email template and rename the database column name to match your changed input name.

You need to refresh the DB Connection after any changes to database column names. In the Form Editor click the DB Connection tab and set the Connection to 'No'. Click the 'Apply icon in the toolbar to save the form, open the DB Connection tab, set the Connection back to 'Yes' and re-save the form. This will refresh the copy of the table information that ChronoForms uses.

2) You can do this project using ChronoForms (probably using several forms) and ChronoConnectivity working together.

Hi ruba88,

If I understand the question correctly you should search here on 'DB Multi Record Loader' for a thread discussing this.

Thank you again for your reply
and I want to ask you another question
CAN I CONTROL SAVE THE DATA IN DATABASE, I want to same the form in two tables each table have it's own fields.
for example
I want to same customer_id, customer_name, and phone in table
and address, fax what ever in other table .

is this possible ??

Hi ruba88 ,

yes you can do that. You'd need two DB Save actions. ChronoForms will save any values where the form data name matches the table column name.

I think you can use the Model IDs to get better control but I don't completely understand how they work.
