Just remember ... If you are trying to push the Request ID from Form A to Form B it will not exist in Phase 1 on the Submit of Form A

That is exactly what I thought it was but I had the wrong characters on the end of my filter. I was thinking it should be ~! Instead of `!. That’s what I get for trying to go off my memory instead of looking it up. ☺ Thanks Again!

The push action happens in Phase 2, but the loop is happening in phase 1. What this means is that you are generating X number of pushes, but the pushes aren't occurring at the same time that the guide is looping through the records, and by the time the records are pushed, the only record selected is the last one, thus the output that you are seeing. So, to correct this, the filter that's doing the push needs to bypass phasing. This is done by changing the name of the filter and put a backtick and an exclamation on the end. this looks like `!. The backtick is the one to the left of the 1 on your keyboard. When you rename the filter and put the `! at the end, you will see that your pushes happen inline with the loop, and your results will include what you want. -----Original Message----- On Fri, Mar 7, 2014 at 11:16 AM, Arner, Todd wrote: ** I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I have set up a filter guide on a form to generate approval records in a separate form. Basically user submits form A. Form A includes a table with a list of user IDs to generate an approval request for. When form A is moved to a status of Request Approval, there is a filter that fires and calls the guide. The filter guide has one attached filter that does a push action to generate the approval requests. The problem I am running into is that the approval requests that are generated are all assigned to the last user ID listed in the table. The filter guide is generating the correct number of approval requests but all are assigned to the last user ID in the table rather than one for each user ID listed. FYI these are all custom forms and workflow. What am I missing? Why is it only inserting the last user ID rather than one for each user ID in the table? Any insight is greatly appreciated.
