Object relationship to itself

kwokm67

I am new to Aware IM so please bear with me.

I have one table Address with an attribute RelatedAddress, type Address, multiple allowed and Peer relation to Address (itself). My form view shows the Address fields plus a tab at the bottom for RelatedAddress which enables me to add related addresses. This works fine but if I go into one of the related address, the RelatedAddress tab does not show the original related address. How can I automate this process or am I doing this wrong?

Please help.

Not sure if this will work, but try specifying matching attribute of the RelatedAddresses to be RelatedAddresses as well, i.e. the RelatedAddresses attribute will have matching attribute to itself.

Thank you for the pointer.

To get it working I did the following:-
1) NAME-RelatedAddress1,TYPE-Address,EXISTING-RelatedAddress2
2) NAME-RelatedAddress2,TYPE-Address,EXISTING-RelatedAddress3
3) RULE- If Address.RelatedAddress2 WAS CHANGED Then
Address.RelatedAddress1=Address.RelatedAddress2

The above works great but when I delete a related entry on one address it doesn't remove it on the other automatically. Is the Rule incorrect?

Thanks

I am not sure I understand this - why do you need 3 related addresses? Anyway, if it works, this is fine.

You may need to use WAS REMOVED FROM condition to add rules to handle removal.

Typing error, should have been:-
2) NAME-RelatedAddress2,TYPE-Address,EXISTING-RelatedAddress1

WAS REMOVED FROM is fine for one entry but doesn't for multiple. I needed to go onto anther form then back to remove the next entry. Is there a RE-INITIALIZE FORM condition / command? DYNAMIC RE-CALCULATION ON FORMS doesn't do the trick.

Thanks
