Showing a list of linked records in another table

I have a Table, called Production Sheet, and each production "day" links to a master Batch sheet for that week. There can be many production days pulling from a single Batch Sheet in another table. 

I can link to the batch sheet just fine. What I would like to do is have the batch sheet show all of the linked production days, which would be separate entries in each of the production days. 

I thought this would be simple by running an automation, when a batch sheet is linked on the production sheet, by finding the batch sheet that matches that date, and adding that production sheet date to a field in the batch sheet. Of course, this would need to concurrently add to that field and not erase it, as multiple records would be added daily throughout the week.

Hmm, could you provide a screenshot with some example data, specifically a manual example of what you'd want the data to look like after the automation has run?  Would love to help but finding it hard to visualize what you want!

I was actually able to fix it easily and natively without automations.  I just added a link, on the batch table record, to a new field called production schedules, which grabs all the all production dates in that table that are themselves, attached to the batch table record. This way, I can show all production days on the batch table, that are attached to that batch date. Probably sounds confusing to others but it works. Thanks.
