Hi Ben B, You are partially correct.  First of all, please notice that you are only able to select the “Additional Columns” option from a dropdown Field.  The issue you are running into is that the dropdown menu is not currently visible in your grid.  In order to enable the dropdown selection in a grid, you ...

Ben, We'll certainly continue to work on this.  I'll be sure to keep you posted. - Adam

Glad to see you got this figured out.  Something else to try if you run into this again is to click "Finish editing fields" in the table you wish to link.  On occassion, the table sometimes needs to be regenerated before the text field options show up. - Adam

If you have a large QuickBooks file with lots of transactions, each full sync will resync all of ...

Support, Is there a way to relate an activity to a "Global Case". In other words if I have a system that is down and it is effecting multiple customers. When multiple customers email/phone in for support it would be nice to create an activity and instead of typing the details of the issue repetitivly, just to realte to a Global Case ...
