Can I reference a choice list on a different table?

I have a table called u_skill_management with two fields, category and sub category that I want to directly reflect the category and sub category fields on my incident table. Since this isn't a reference is there a way I can sync the two somehow?

Hello Steve,

 

Yes you can. Navigate to the choice field-> Right click on the field->Configure Dictionary->Click on Related link Advanced view->Set choice table to Incident and choice field to Cateogry and save the form. Repeat the same process for Subcategory choice field.

 

Thanks,

Wow a visit from the #2 leader board man himself! Cool!

 

I got as far as advanced view but do not see a choice table. I am going to try to relate them as Shishir suggests to see if that will give me the option.

 

 

That worked! Thank you

Awesome Stevemunsell and thanks for your kind words 😃

4 years later and I forgot how to do this again but you helped me re-answer my question lol, thanks again!
