Linking a request to another request upon submission

[simran3]

Is there any way to link a request I'm submitting upon order guide to the parent request? Unfortunately this request I want to link is a record producer and not a catalog item, so it does not show under the Requested Items related list. I am manually able to add the record producer request under the main order guide request in the Request related list, which makes it it's child request, but how can I make it happen automatically upon submission?

Why are you creating a Request record with a Record Producer?

[simran3]

because this is an old form that was created back when we only used record producers. it's heavily customized and we don't have the bandwidth to switch it over to a catalog item just yet.

Hi @simran3 ,

Which table is the record producer is on. Could you Please try passing the submitted req as url param as session variable, Then we can add a hidden field in your record producer table and update the request in it.

We can also create related list that will show related records under request.

Mark it helpful if this helps you to understand. Accept solution if this give you the answer you're looking for

Kind Regards,

the record producer is on sc_request table. how do you pass a submitted req as url param as session variable? I am not sure how to do that. also i already have an existing related list that allows me to add a request as a child request under another request manually.
