CDS Lookup Multiple Entities

How can I display a field from a related table via Lookups.

 

My current table is TableA that has (M:1) with TableB, TableB has (M:1) with TableC (which contains the Description field ).

 

Why doesn't this work: 

ThisItem.'TableA Lookup'.'TableB Lookup'.'DescriptionField'

    Hi @s-roberts :

    It is not feasible to continuously refer to related entities like this.

    Please try this code:(I assume 'Name' is TableB's primary key)

     

    LookUp(TableB,Name=ThisItem.'TableA Lookup'.Name).'TableB Lookup'.'DescriptionField'

     

    Maybe this post can give you some inspiration:

    Show 3rd level entity data 

    Best Regards,

    Bof
