I am having trouble displaying choices of List Field in Parent table

[AM24]

I have a table that extends another table. On the extended table, I have a list field called Relationship, whose choices appear as below.

On the parent table, it appears like this:

Is there any easy fix to get these choices to show up in the parent table? Thanks.

Additional Information about setup:

I did not create Relationship on the parent table. I'm not supposed to create new fields on the parent table. There is a one to one relationship between the tables and I was able to have the relationship field appear on the parent table through form layout.

Add the same choices to the Relationship field on the parent table. seems no choices are defined for that field. why define the same field on both parent and child tables?

I did try adding the same choices to parent table. I created the same choices and set the table to parent but it doesn't seem to show up. And I did not create the same field on the parent table. I have a 1 to 1 relationship between both the tables. I just added the relationship field to the parent form from list layout.

Hi @AM24,

You can create the choices on the parent table and delete the ones in the child table.

That way, the child table will automatically inherit the choices from the parent.

But of course, you can override the choices in the child table if you wish so.

Cheers

Hello James,

Thank you for the response. Unfortunately, that has not worked for me. I did create choices on the parent table and deleted the ones on the child table, but no choices still appear.
