SPO Parent/Child relationship

Hi, here’s to know “How can we create relationship” beetwen two SharePoint Online lists.

My idea is create relation with a list of costs rows, to my list “Travel requests”, created for previous tutorial (Build an app in a few minutes), to understand costs details for each travel 🙂

1. Create list “Expense rows”

As a first step, we need a new list to store costs rows, so I add new list to my SPO site.

Then, we should add column to store amount of cost and column to create relationship with travel rows (PS: I use Title column for title of cost row)

Ok now we must create column to create relationship beetwen cost row and travel. To do this, need a LookUp column or for Italian People (“Ricerca”). Please keep mind this kind of column doesnt’t listed on list of common type column (see previous screenshot). One way to create it: click on “Add column” , “More” .

Here we can create lookup column.

Put column name (my case “Travel”) and choose type “Lookup”… (Wait for page reload).

Now you should set “Get information from” field : In this field you must choose another list where get row (or multiple rows) to create relationship.

Set “In this column” field. Here you can set column of other list, used to choose row.

In my case I also checked “Require that this column contains information“, because , in my opinion, when we add cost rows, travel is mandatory 🙂

There are others option, but for this tutorial we can click ok, and come back to our list.

2. Show relationship in SPO Page

First, create some travel rows and cost rows. Now , when we add some cost rows, we must choose “travel” row to associate it 🙂

Adding cost row

Now it simple 🙂 To show relationship beetwen two list, we must edit a SharePoint page, add two “list” webpart:

Select Parent list first:

And then we do same process for expense rows.

Finally we have 2 lists in page:

All lists data in page

Finally, add Dynamic filtering on “Expense row” webpart:

Result:

Thanks and Stay tuned 🙂

Power Apps Introduction’s

Customer’s often ask me: “What is Power Apps? What can I do with it?

“Official” reply is : “Power Apps is a suite of apps, services, connectors and data platform that provides a rapid application development environment to build custom apps for your business needs. Using Power Apps, you can quickly build custom business apps that connect to your business data….” (Here official link)

In order to make it easier to understand, my reply is:

“With Power Apps, you can build applications without being developers, integrated with different services, usable through browsers, tablets and Android or iOS Smartphones.”

Mixed-Reality-Power-Apps

Does It appear cool? Yes it do 🙂

There are many other things you can do… for example the features of Mixed Reality, or AI Builder that allows you to take advantage of artificial intelligence to extract text from an image, perform sentiment analysis, process receipts etc…

I’ll write a series of tutorials that will bring you closer to this world with very little effort.

See you soon. Stay tuney!
