I am trying to do a simple count on a table with a rel column. I cannot assign that rel column to the rollup column… seems pretty straightforward so I am not sure what I am doing wrong…  
See screenshot thanks

Any help would be great

Hi @carlodemarchis,

Welcome to the community 🥳

If the **Related Users Rel** is multiple ( if the checkbox is marked in the relation column ) then you should see that column as a option on the top of the list in the rollup column.

If the **Related Users Rel** is not multiple ( if the checkbox is not marked in the relation column ) then I guess you don’t see it in the rollup column. I think you would no need a rollup column because the count is always 1. If you like to count it and populate like 1 you could use a lookup column that shows the rel\> ID,name and a rollup column that counts that lookup column.
