Hi Ron

”Can I ask that in the data structure is different with the new business? Maybe there’s any other solution will scale better."

The data structure is not so different, I could solve it by creating new columns. My main point is acccess permission, because I need only certain people accessing each database, but the main one is forms. I have few people filling these databases via forms. one column of this database is my projects, and I have many projects for each company.

when someone from company A is creating an entry via form, when they click on project, they can see all projects from company B. One way to solve it is to create two columns: one for Project A and other for Project B, but this is not scalable (maybe I’ll have company C and company D in the future 🙂 )

I’ve created a topic asking for a filter in forms, but Fibery does not have it. I think the only way to keep privacy for both business is separating the databases.

> Hey everyone, First off, I’m really enjoying building things in Fibery! I’m trying to set up a workflow for my clients, but I’ve run into a little snag with forms that I’m hoping you could help with. I’m creating a simple form for a client to submit new tasks. The form has a “Project” dropdown so they can link the task to their project. The problem is, this dropdown shows all of our company’s projects, not just the one or two that actually belong to that client. It’s a bit confusing for them,…
