Change Linked Field

[dodom2]

Hello All. I have a many-to-many relationship between 2 entity modules. Module A and Module B. However currently it just shows the record id instead of any of the fields. Where can I update this to show a custom field instead of the record id? Im on 5.8.1 btw

have you made any manually changes to the code ?

Not a bit. I just disabled the default name field which is what it was setup to orginally show Im sure.

this is the reason, because espocrm needs the name field to used here, when name not found the id will used instead

Thats the default behavior however there has to be a way around it. This system is too flexible not to allow it not to mention if it was required it wouldn't allow for disabling the field. I may have to update it in the code tho. Thanks for your help

I succeeded by setting a formula where I say that the name field is the same as the name field of the relationship, e.g. name = course.name leave the name field disabled and this way you can solve the problem

Thanks for that! That will be an acceptable solution.
