Hi there, 

Just wanted to know is there any way that I can create multiple entries by using a module? ( by using list we can create multiple list items by using + sign) 

Requirement is, when we select a particular D6 department by using a page selector of Departments(they should be created under a selected D6(We have D1 to D6 Hierarchy)?

First task would be we have to catch which department we have selected 

Second, create how many list members we wanted to create by using a module

Please suggest the approach if you know any

 

Note: We are using a numbered list, I dont want to use any import file to create list members

 

Thanks,

Dileepkumar

    Rob,

    If I use create action, I am able to create one item at a time,  with create action I am not able to create bulk list items like 10 or 15 list items 

    let me explain you what my approach was, Created a module and it has count(1 to 20) as dimension and required fields as line items  to enter the data includes code and parent , D6 as drop down line item, created an import action by using anaplan connect( module to list ), by using this I can create multiple list members but requirement is D6 should be automatically populated when I select a particular D6( lower level) inside the line item which I have taken as dropdown, If I am able to capture the D6 in the dropdown then  i can enter the data and run the import and the fields would be flowing to the list.

    Appreciated your quick response,

    D7 data should be populated by the user.

    At present they are creating the list items by using a list which is there on the dashboard, but it is inefficient as few features wont work for a list, My idea is we can give them option to enter upto 20 records at a time, if they required more we can do by following your approach,

    I will implement and let you know,

    Thanks for your quick responses, Rob
