How it works

You can provide users with a dropdown to select an existing record from another table instead of typing it manually. This ties records together and keeps your data organized. To do this, use a Link to table field. For example, in a Time Deposit Accounts table, you can link each account to a customer in the Bank Customers table. When adding a new account, you select the customer from the linked table, ensuring the account is tied to the correct person. This prevents duplicates, keeps your data consistent, and makes it easy to navigate between related records.
