Hi Daniel,
That does happen at times by default for Actions, they can be set to trigger on a child record and change a parent record it just takes a few more steps. On the child table you just need to create a report link field that matches the Related Parent field to the Key field in the parent table. Then you can use that as the target for your Action. It just won't display that option as available till the child table has a report link on it since those report links serve to help the Action target the right records to change.
