How to populate a Related List on a form?

[Sid_Takali]

Hii all,

just for a curiosity I want to understand how to populate a related list on a form when a certain field value is selected.

[Martin Ivanov]

Related lists are list view of another table, embeded in your form. They are usually listing records that have reference to the current record. To have data in our related list, there must be records in the target table, that are referencing the record, currently being open. e.g. You have a problem record, and you have outage related list. This will show all the outages, that are related (caused by) to this problem (if any).

You can also create custom relationships, but it is a bit harder.

Read here the docs about related lists.

Read here about scripted relationships.
