All,

 

I have 2 custon objects below

 

Settlement__c

 

Party_to_the_Settlement__c

 

there is a Master-Detail Relationship from Party to Settlement to Settlement

 

I created a formula(text) field on Settlement__c object  with formula    Party_to_the_Settlement__r.name  to display the name of the associated record but I receive the error below

 

Error: Field Party_to_the_Settlement__r does not exist. Check spelling.

 

Question. - does anyone know how I can get the Party to Settlement name on the formula(text) field in the Settlement__c object ?

    Ouch...  that's a deal breaker, you can go from Parent/Master down to Child/Detail, but not the other way around: from Child/Detail up Parent/Master.  

     

    For that you'll need either a Workflow, Process, or Apex Code
