Hi @John Doe ,

To add fields from a referenced table in a related list, you can use the following steps:

1. Navigate to the related list you want to modify. In your case, that would be the "Items" related list on the "Group" form.
2. Click on the gear icon in the top-right corner of the related list.
3. Click on "Configure" to open the related list configuration page.
4. In the "Related List Columns" section, click on the "Add Fields" button.
5. In the "Add Fields" dialog box, search for the fields you want to add from the referenced table. In your case, you would search for the fields from the "abc" table that you want to display in the related list.
6. Once you have found the fields you want to add, select them and click on the "Add" button.
7. Once you have added all the fields you want to display in the related list, click on the "Save" button to save the related list configuration.

Now, the related list will display the fields from the referenced table for each item in the list.

Hi John,

In order to pull the fields from the reference field table on the related list, right click on the related list header >> configure >> list layout.

You should be able to dot walk the field from that reference field's table and pull on the right slush bucket and save.

example: 

1. custom table created - table name : [custom_m2m_tb]

2. has two reference fields Task(references task table), Problem(references problem table)

3. as this will have reference to problem table, a related list corresponding to this will be available on problem table

4. pull the related list on problem table

5. right click on the header under the tab related to this related list

6. configure >> list layout

7. you should be able to dot walk on fields from both Task and Problem tables and pull those on the related list for custom_m2m_table
