How to know the mother entity of a existing Sub-entity

[alaindebecker]

I have an entity Employee which is also a tab (sub entity) of the entity Office. The Office has been created before the Employee, so it is possible to list all the Employee by clicking on the left panel. However, I cannot then know which is the Office of the Employee I see on row, say, 3.

Is it possible to add the column Office on the list of Employees. In all logic this column should come just after the column Employee Id.

And for the comfort of the user, it would be better if this column is replaced by the Office name.

Edit "field_list.dust" and add a new entry th pointing on "r_office"

But this a workaround, not a solution. When do you plan to change this ?

We have not planned to replace you Alain ;-) You can do things in right order, and add field Office on Employee so that it is displayed in list.

But I have planned for newMips to be able to replace me.
