I have three tables:


Employee



  • name

  • linked column to their position


Positions



  • name

  • linked column to the department its in


Departments



  • name


Is there a way to create a grid view that groups the employees by departments?


So it would look something like this:


Sales
Alice | Salesperson
Bob | Salesperson
Carla | Coordinator
Accounting
Angela | Accountant
Brett | Accounts Payable
Caspar | Accounts Receivable

I figured it out. For posterity and anyone else who might need it:


The way I solved it was to create a lookup field in the employee table that looked up the department in the linked positions table. This created a column directly in the employee that I could then use for grouping.


This is the help article I used for lookup fields

That is the way and what Lookup fields are for :winking_face:
