    It is now possible to reference custom table data within record worksheets. This includes the ability to reference master-detail custom fields as well.

    To reference a master-detail custom field on a record, use the following syntax:

    • self.custom.<master-detail custom field API key>[].custom.<api key for field on custom table>

    Let's say you have the following configuration for a feature custom field layout:

    Custom table

    You have a custom table capturing the savings and cost.

    You also have a master-detail's custom field connected to the custom table above. The master-detail's custom field API key is budget.

    The worksheet is now configured to calculate values added to the master-detail custom field.
