Adding another vote here - this seems like a massive oversight that it is not already a feature! I need parent-child relationships to work and be accessible from either direction
I’m trying to use this for dependencies on a game design floor plan. If I add a link to another room as an option for a direction for someone to go to, I have to go to that record and add the link to the previous record manually. I should be able to link to one and have the dependency exist.
+1 I need this for a User Story hierarchy. When a User Story turns out to be too big to do in one sprint, we change it to an epic create a bunch of User Stories under it to do a phased implementation. Each of these stories has the Epic in a Parent field. I want another field that shows all the Children of the Epic. And no running of scripts. It should work exactly the same as when I link records between table.
I could easily see a tick box or on/off switch on the LInk to … dialog when creating a link to the same table. The switch would ask “Create reverse linking field?” and if you say “Yes”, it lets you provide a name for . Much like the automatic lookup is offered after linking to field in a different table. So easy to do! Why is this taking so long.
Adding my +1 to this feature, it would be immensely helpful. I’m feeling a little stuck now that I just learned that there is NOT bi-directional linking within the same table… it has made my information more clunky :frowning:
