Make it easier to reorder View fields
For Views with many fields from many tables, it is very helpful to arrange the fields in a logical order, especially when adding a new column which by default goes to the end. At the moment, one has to use up and down arrows for this, which is very clunky and time-consuming for large Views. Please could you consider replacing the current fields control with one that allows the selected item to be dragged to a new position in the list.

Copying the record from parent table to the child table and triggered action run in child table.
Sometimes we need to split the tables in some sections by creating a new child tables. But when we insert records from parent tables to child tables it is not possible to trigger an action because of currently triggered actions are limited to a maximum of one nested level. This limitation causes the app builders to create complex applıcations. Caspio needs to raise of number nested level otherwıse it is pointless to subscribe to this system.

Allow editing across multiple Tables in View
Currently only one Table per View can be edited. This forces designers to create more DataPages then necessary to work around this shortfall. By allowing multiple Tables to be edited, designers could reduce the overall DataPage count.

Enhance the View Criteria by using the trigger interface.
Instead of just having the current, kludgy view builder (that has very limited criteria capabilities when it comes to comparing dates in two tables) allow a user to opt to use the Trigger builder interface for building joins and setting criteria. This would dramatically increase the view building functionality.

Add the ability to perform "star" ratings for reviewing a table entry.
Today the user has the ability to rate a table entry using numbers, but how about what is common today for rating (like hotels, travel suggestions, etc.) is a 5 star rating.

Allow importing values into List datatype fields
Currently, there is no way to bulk upload into this datatype via the Import feature in the bridge, even if the data is formatted right. Such table fields are simply invisible upon import, which makes it cumbersome to convert existing tables built before this feature was rolled out to utilize this leaner option.

run a trigger after record is saved in the table
We need to create a record in the child table when a new record is inserted in the parent table. Since triggers operates with #inserted record (which is not inserted in the table yet) child record cannot be created (we use referential integrity)

Attach Object
There is a way to detach an object from a specific App but there isn't a way to attach it to a specific App. You can Share the object but sometimes you simply want to move something to a specific App as part of house keeping.

All Assets - Additional Columns and Filter
When looking at the All Assets view it would be helpful to have a column for DataPage. This way you could quickly see what is being used and if you have any orphan objects.
Also there should be a way to filter objects by name and DataPage. This is helpful if you have large numbers of objects (either Shared or App specific).

Ability to sort View on specific field
When using a single table to store all my drop down values, it would be great to be able to sort on a custom column. There are times where sorting alphabetically is not the correct choice.
Also, if you could sort on a view it would be one less step to configure in the data page. It would help with reusability.

Option to create Formulas inside Views.
For example:
I have Users and Roles tables. One to may relationship from Roles to Users but I would like to have a dropdown that reads Username (Role) but that is not possible unless we could have the ability to create Formulas in our views.I think this will increase usability a lot.

Pre-populating the labels from an Excel import
When I import a table from Excel, the first row is generally the field names. I should be able to tell Caspio that the cells in the second row are the field labels.

Ability to mark fields required when creating data tables (Same as NULL and NOT NULL at MS SQLServer Level)
The front end has the ability to mark fields required from data page. Need the same at the table level. If the field is a required field at the table level should automatically be required in the data page.

Lock fields instead of entire tables when custom programming uses a table.
Currently, if professional service does any custom work (i.e. triggered action, etc) the entire table is locked and the user cannot do any further development using that table (i.e. cannot add fields, etc.). This causes users to have to submit tickets just to have a new field added. That can take from hours to days to get done through that process. This directly contradicts the use-case for Caspio which should allow users to develop their own apps.
Previously users may have changed a field used in custom programming which would break the programming. A support ticket would then go in…

Editable e-mail fields for scheduled task exports
If I set up a scheduled task to e-mail a table or view, I have no way to edit the From, Subject, or Body fields. So I can't distinguish between different reports when they arrive in my inbox, and I can't provide instructions to the recipients about what to do with the attached files.

Pivot Tables Details and Sorting
The new Pivot Table feature to view details is helpful, but when the details have thousands of records, it beats the purpose of a Pivot Table.
Pivot Table Details should be able to be summarized just like it's parent pivot table so when we want to see details, we can see a few hundred rows rather than be stuck with the whole data table results.
also a sorting feature that can sort values A-Z even when there is a grouping on the table would be great. Pivot tables can be sorted by values ONLY if there aren't any groupings. This…
