FAQ

Does a bidirectional linked field take up two field columns?

  1. Yes. A bidirectional link creates one linked field in the current table and another in the target table.
  2. If you only need one-way reference, use a one-way link to reduce field usage.
  3. Before designing the table structure, confirm whether two-way visibility is really needed.

Why can’t I see the records I want after setting the field?

  1. Right-click the field title and open Field Settings.
  2. Check whether Linked record range is set to Specified Records.
  3. If you use conditions or a selected view, confirm that the condition rules or view content are correct.

Can a bidirectional linked field work with other fields?

  1. Yes.
  2. It can work together with lookup reference fields and statistic fields.
  3. Before combining fields, make sure the relation is already created, then continue with later field setup.
