I am trying to get an app ribbon working for the Quotes app. I think I have everything set up properly.

On the contacts app I get a proper count  but clicking on that app in the ribbon brings an error popop.

I will also need to know how to setup app ribbon New buttons, as asked on this forum post:

Hi Jack,

Have you Set up the Record Summary in the Quotes App? The Record Summary shows How the individual 'Quote' Records will be displayed on App Ribbons, and not setting this up will cause a Parsing error to occur when clicking the app ribbon itself.

For example, I have a Cars App (Every Car has a Contact - Related to the Contacts Table) I have the Record Summary set up as;

Which will show up in my Contact App Ribbon as;

Thanks Jack.

That was what I was missing!

Thanks Ben!

One more question: 

How do I pre-populate the contact dropdown on my quotes page when a user clicks the new button for quotes in the app ribbon on the contacts screen?

Hi Jack,

You'll need to change the 'Quotes field' Dropdown from CustomerID_RecordID to just CustomerID. Other than that, everything looks good :)

Thanks Jack.

That fixed it!

thanks again
