Qrew LegendAre you saying that the uploaded records know the name of the Project but that the Key field of the Projects is Record ID# and not the name so they don't have a way to automatically match up?
You could set up a Pipeline to trigger when a product is created and the Related Project is blank. The Pipeline would do a search against the Projects table for the first record (ie limit = 1) where the Project Name matches the Project name on the record created and updates the record that was created to Update the apply the [Related Project]

I know the field but I'm having trouble getting quickbase to know the field. Right now it's only allowing one merge field: Record ID#. The record ID I want associated for all is just Record ID # 1 but if I put "1" in the record ID column it still doesn't link anything.

- MarkShnier__YouThat was like a second nuance to your question. Are you saying you were trying to upload products and update existing products or add products if it is a new product?

------------------------------- Sorry for my delay, Mark. I am trying to add products as new products but I want them to be linked to the Record ID.
So I have projects 199 and 193 right now. I'm adding inventory to them via the csv. I have 193 or 199 in the Related Product column on the CSV but nothing links when I upload.
