It shows the many-to-one or many-to-many relationships that the current record has with other modules, such as all Deals linked to a Contact, all Activities associated with an Account, or all Notes on a Deal.<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>Standard Related Lists<\/h2>\n<p>Every standard module has a set of default Related Lists. For example, the Account record shows Related Lists for Contacts, Deals, Activities, Cases, Emails, and Attachments. Each Related List can be expanded to view all related records, and new records can be created directly from the Related List without leaving the parent record.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>Custom Related Lists<\/h2>\n<p>When a <a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/lookup-field\/\" class=\"sp-content-link\">Lookup Field<\/a> is added to a module pointing to another module, a Related List is automatically added to the target module&#8217;s layout. This means custom relationships created via Lookup Fields are automatically visible as Related Lists, building a navigable record network without additional configuration.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>Industry Example<\/h2>\n<div class=\"gt-example-box\"><strong>Logistics:<\/strong> A logistics company uses the Account record as the central hub for each client. The Related Lists on each Account show: open Deals (pipeline), active Projects (Zoho Projects integration), open support tickets (Zoho Desk integration), recent invoices (Zoho Books integration), and all contacts at the client company. A key account manager can review the full relationship status without navigating away from the Account record.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>Related Terms<\/h2>\n<div class=\"gt-related-pills\"><a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/lookup-field\/\" class=\"sp-content-link gt-related-pill\">Lookup Field<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/page-layout\/\" class=\"sp-content-link gt-related-pill\">Page Layout<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/account\/\" class=\"sp-content-link gt-related-pill\">Account<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/contact\/\" class=\"sp-content-link gt-related-pill\">Contact<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/activity\/\" class=\"sp-content-link gt-related-pill\">Activity<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/subform\/\" class=\"sp-content-link gt-related-pill\">Subform<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/contact-role\/\" class=\"sp-content-link gt-related-pill\">Contact Role<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<div class=\"gt-faq-item\">\n<h3>What is a Related List in Zoho CRM?<\/h3>\n<p>A Related List is a section at the bottom of a CRM record that displays linked records from another module.
