Updating field based on linked record

Could you provide screenshots of the relevant tables and examples of what you'd like to happen?  Would love to help, but finding it hard to visualize your base!

Thanks for your speedy reply!

I've created a mock base that is trying to accomplish the same thing that I am in my org's base. 

You can see that the Customers all have regions associated to them, I'd like the regions of the stores they are linked to to auto-populate based on the customer location. So in this example, Store A should have Europe and Latin America, B should have Africa, and C should have North America and Asia.

Hope that helps! 

Hi, you have just to create a lookup field like this: 

 You can hide the column "Table 1". Your mistake was that you just linked the two tables without apply the "function" lookup. 

Steps 

1. create a linked field that you have already created (your Customers column in the store table)

2. in the store table create a lookup 

and automatically will populate this column with the region info of the customer table.

Let me know if you have any questions 🙂

Thank you! This is helpful, I have two problems. 

1. It returns multiples - my actual base has over 2000 records, using the lookup, I get 50 instances of Asia in one records. Any way of avoiding this? 

2. In my actual base, I have 3 different linked columns, it appears I can only use lookup from a single linked column. Any way to get around this?

No problem 🙂 

1. you can use a rollup and the formula ARRAYUNIQUE(values)

2. I didn't understand the question 😂
