Hi Allison:

 

You should start in the Parent record, then link the Child record to the
parent record...is this what you did? If not, you should unlink and
start over. Let me know if you need to know how to unlink.

 

Ciao,

 

Annie @ GS

I have not checked the component number or running DB Config > update
Parent Association. I will give that a try.

 

Thank you for the hints.

Hey Allison,

 

Have you checked the component record numbers (whenever there's a number
off, I usually find them the culprit)? Have you tried running the DB
Config > Update Parent Associations?

Hi all,

 

I am trying to create parent-child relationship between a bottle and a
stopper. I followed all the instruction and I am running into an issue
that I am not sure how to trouble shoot.

 

I have connected the parent (bottle) to the stopper (child). When I
refresh the record the information in the group field seems weird. It
reads:

"Stopper: (41.900.420.B; Complete)" for the parent record 41.900.420.A

And

"Bottle: Mount Washington Glass, Bottle: Catsup Bottle (W46)
(41.900.420.B; Complete)" for the child record 41.900.420.B

 

Shouldn't the Child record have 41.900.420.A [parent] in the group
information? At the moment it just looks like it is attached to itself. 

 

I know this is going to be extremely confusing to some people. Is there
any way around this? Am I doing something wrong?

 

Feel free to contact me off list.

 

Thank you!

Best,

Allison
