Hello, I have a problem when editing an object (a row from the “Faktury” table). In this table, I have a RowID column. In the second table (“Pozycje Faktur”), I have a column RowID\_Faktury where I store the invoice ID. I would like to display only those items where RowID\_Faktury matches the RowID of the current invoice. Unfortunately, the filter I set with the condition RowID\_Faktury = screen\>RowID does not work – no results are displayed. Could you please advise me on how to properly configure the filtering/relationship in this case? ---

I assume the ID matches exactly in both tables? Do you have row owners applied to any columns in the Pozycje Faktur table? If you create a relation in your Faktury table, does it show matches, and if so what happens when you change your collection source to use the relation instead of filtering? ---

Yes, the IDs are 100% correct. I don’t have any row owners applied. Yes, after creating a relation in the Faktury table, I can see matches from the PozycjeFaktur table. If I set the collection source to use the relation instead of filtering, I only get the filter options **is empty / is not empty**. ---

> [@Vinne](#): > > If I set the collection source to use the relation instead of filtering, I only get the filter options **is empty / is not empty**. Sounds like you are trying to use the relation as a filter, rather than using it as the source of the collection. ---

Great, now it works. I’m really grateful. ---
