Creating a Link Between Houses and Appraisals


The relationship between Houses and Appraisals is one-to-many—for each house record, there can be many Appraisal records. The link object establishes the one-to-many relationship between the parent business component (Internal Products) and the child business component (Appraisals). You must create a Link object to establish this relationship. Once the relationship exists, you will be able to create a master-detail view to display the data.

  1. In the Object Explorer, select Link.
