Say for Example

I have a Contact Table — I hit the ‘+’ sign present on the table, a new row comes up ---- Now, I fill up the Lookup Field (In this Case Account) – I want to map back some of the Account objects field the moment Lookup field is filled in. Currently I have added an action on Contact table in which whenever Lookup field is changed the value gets updated.

I am using (Account.Name in Contact Name say for Example) So my Syntax is – Object__r.Name. This works with name but my problem is, I am not able to Map other values like Object__r.City , Object__r.Industry etc. It only map back Name to my contact field.

Can anybody help me with a way please. I dont want a button, I waana do it on the given “+” sign.

Thanks

You could add a model action on your table’s object to save and re-query the table’s model when the lookup field is updated.

The issue you are running into is that Salesforce will only provide the Name field for any new Lookup/Master-Detail value. All the other related fields you would like to show, like Object__r.Industry, will only be available once the record is saved.

There isn’t any need to requery to get this information in your table. Saving will make this information show in the table.

Pats right.  Save the model and the related data will be brought back into the table. 

Well, It worked. 

Thank you so much Rob Hatch,  Pat Vachon and Matt Sones for your valuable solutions and such a quick response to my problem.

Thanks
