hierarchy list and child list

KubotaNatsuki

hi!

When I check list items in the parent hierarchy, I want to create a mechanism to check all items in the child hierarchy.

What i should do?

Please help me.

Hi @KubotaNatsuki ,

In your query, assuming 'Check' = assigning ✅ to a list item in parent list, you can Lookup the parent property (which @ChrisAHeathcote explained) to apply it to child items pertaining to that parent.

Hi @KubotaNatsuki

You'll need to provide more information.

I find that a working sample on Excel that you attach here normally helps.

Thanks,

Create a module dimensioned by the child list.

Add a list formatted line item containing the parent list.

Use; ITEM(PARENT('Child List')) to pull through the parent of the list item.

Now you can see the parent of each child list item in a single location. If a child list item does not have a parent then the result will be blank.

@ChrisAHeathcote

Shouldn't it be PARENT(ITEM(Child List))?

Thank you for your reply!

I got it to use Lookup!!
Thank you!!

KubotaNatsuki

Thanks for your reply!

I can do it to use 'Lookup' and 'Parent' function!
Thank you so much!

While using LOOKUP will return the parent list item as per a mapping module dimensioned by the child item but the formula will not be as efficient as using PARENT.
