  3. Relation field is looking strange and not accurate [resolved]

I'm trying to make a relation field show a dropdown-like selection for a model I have called Buy which has many ItemsCatalgue. The drop down should just show the id of the model ItemsCatalogue.

here is my code for the fields.yaml:

fields:
    id:
        label: ID
        disabled: true
        span: auto
    itemcat:
        label: Quote No
        disabled: false
        type: relation
        select: id

And here is my code for the model Buy (which is the model I'm using to access the items from the ItemsCatalogue Model):

 'itemcat' => ['Lives\Sales\Models\ItemCatalogue', 'key' => 'id']

I am only getting empty results, but the ItemCatalogue has data in it.

Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Thank you

It would help having a bit more information as you show tiny bits of code which don't give enough perspective. Also having the database table field definition would help.

Hi mjauvin. Thanks for replying. I resolved the issue on my end. It was due to my lack of understanding relations. I had put the itemcat variable in the wrong relationship [HasMany instead of BelongsTo in my Buy Model] and it affected how the fields displayed the information. Apologies for not giving enough detail.

Thanks
