Unable to populate child /related records based on parent record in active form

Posted on by

Have 2 tables requestId and requestDetails both have relation based on requestID (1:N) and requirement is to display the child data (request details) once the user selects a requestID . But after creating the relationship, child data (requestdetails) is not getting displayed in active form.

Appreciate any help / pointers to documentations which covers this scenario

Tried sub grids but no luck

    yes that was the one tried but did not worked  unless  i explicitly select the parent look up column in child entity .  This does not work for us as underlying data is in sql server and  its not viable to  manually to go to each child record and set the parent entity for this sub grid to work.

    Note : There is 1:N relationship between parent and child

    Hi novice99,

    If you create a sub-grid on the parent entity you will be able to display child records on it if the sub-grid has been set up correctly.
