Child Attributes

This exciting new feature allows any lookup field to have dependant data, creating parent/child relationships between fields that can be managed through the Table Maintenance step. See Parent and Child Lookups (Table Maintenance) for more information.

There are a number of possibilities of how you might use this great enhancement in letters or business rules, so please speak to your Project Lead about how this might work for you.

Importing/Updating Child Attributes

You will now only need to import the parent against an employee. Once the parent is associated with an employee, then all child fields will also be linked to the employee. 

Bulk Imports allows you to update the values of the child fields quickly and effectively. See How to import a table with child values for more information. 

Table Maintenance - values can be manually updated directly via the Table Maintenance step. See How to manually update a table with child values for more information.
