I’m making a screen that displays the details of a selected field - is there a way to display the value of a relationship field? ---

Yes, you can. But if you’re facing any problems, you might want to check if the screen that you want to display the relationship data on has the “Current” data ---

Hey Vance - Thanks for helping out. Still not sure where I’m messing up. When I try to add the data from the relationship field, it shows up as item at the bottom of the menu - but following it, I don’t see where I can add the value of the field (the menu keeps repeating itself). ![Screen Shot 2020-09-18 at 11.27.38 AM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/adalo/original/2X/4/48d9ac4648a7a91f257d28bdc681145b8db350f2.png) ---

Quick question: Why do you have 2 statuses? 1. Current Shift \> Status 2. Current Shift \> Shift Status You might have to rethink the collection’s structure… ---

Yeah - as I was starting with this, I created a field “Status” that was a just a text field. Learning a little bit more, I thought it may be best to create a relationship between the “Shift” collection and a “Status” collection. Reason for moving the “Status” to being its own collection was to be able to use it as a dropdown while creating a new shift. ---

Can you check if your “Shift” and “Shift Status” collections have a many-to-1 relationship? 1 Shift Status can have many Shifts attached to it, but 1 Shift can only have 1 Shift Status at a time. I suspect it’s the relationship settings. It looks like you’ve set either a 1-to-many or many-to-many relationship between Shift and Shift Status that’s why there’s a count option. ---

you are correct - changed the relationship settings, and it performed as expected. Thanks! ---
