For each child, configure the following fields:

  • Child Custom Field – One of the child database custom fields that you added. These are visible for selection only when multiple values flag isn't checked for the parent database custom field.
  • Column – One of the columns selected by the sql query, for instance col2. This column will be used to get the value for this child field. The value for the child field is completed automatically after a value for the main database custom field is selected.
