Remarks

• The RELATED function requires that a relationship exists between the current table and the table with related information. You specify the column that contains the data that you want, and the function follows an existing many-to-one relationship to fetch the value from the specified column in the related table. If a relationship does not exist, you must create a relationship.When the RELATED function performs a lookup, it examines all values in the specified table regardless of any filters that may have been applied.
