Re: How to relate date filed from child table to date field from parent table

Gaurav,

The parent table SLA Monthly can have many child records in the SLA Region table.   Are you trying to get the value of the date field in the SLA Region table?   

If you want to know the value of the very first child record or the very last child record, you can create a reverse relationship to populate it in the parent table.

Create a Summary field on the Record ID # for the SLA Region


Pick Minimum or Maximum dependent on your criteria.

Now create a new relationship between the tables but make SLA Region the Parent and pick the field you created above as the reference field.  Do not let it create a new field called Related SLA Region

In the new relation ship you can use Date from the SLA Region as a Look Up field in the SLA Monthly table.

Here is what your table structure will look like


I did the minimum value in this example
If you choose Maximum then every time a new record is added to the SLA Region table, the value in the SLA Monthly table will change to reflect that.
