Configure a related list screen for a record screen
Create a related list screen to give your users easy access to records related to the record they're already viewing.
A related list appears in a tab on your mobile form, and displays a list of records relating to the record on the form. For example. If you are viewing a problem record, you may want your related list to display all incident records associated with that problem record.
Note: Supported relationships are defined by a reference field between two tables. Custom relationships created using the Relationships [sys_relationship] table or scripted relationships aren't supported with this component.
Creating a related list involves three tasks:
-
1. Create a parametrized data item for your related list
Create a parametrized data item to contain the records that display in your related list.
-
2. Create a list screen to use as a related list
Create a related list using your parametrized data item. This list appears for your users when they select the related list tab on their form screen.
-
3. Update your record screen to display a related list
Update your record screen to display a list of related records, and define the relationship between your record screen and the related list.
