    Table Relationship Information

    While customizing tables I ran across a scenario where I tried to delete a custom table but received the message below.

    "Table 'Warranty' is used in a relationship with another table currently. It cannot be deleted at this time. Delete the relationship field in the other table and you may delete this table."

    I looked through every table I thought I might have added it to but could not find the relationship preventing me from deleting the table.

    I thought - wow it sure would be nice if there was a tool that would allow you to see table relationship information.

    Scenario:
    Working with table relationships

    Helpful Tool:
    List relationship information for a table or the message pop up could list the information it knows is preventing the deletion.
     

    Problem:
    After creating a relationship between tables there is no way to see these relationships afterwards. You just know there is relationship somewhere to another table.

    Hi there. 

    I certainly think that’s a great functionality idea for Method in the future.  At present, we're focusing on ensuring that the core functionality of the application operates properly and focusing on creating the Industry-specific apps.  Once we get to a point where we’ve covered all the bases, we’ll be able to fine-tune Method with requests such as these.
