I have a record type named Patient and in that there are columns like Name ,Age and Gender. I need to store the value in Gender as M and F. There is another recordtype named reference and there I have 2 columns such as gender code and gender name .There are 2 records ,one is gender code M for gender name Male and second is gender code F for the gender name female .When I am displaying the record list I need to show the gender values as Male and Female instead of M and F by mapping to the recordtype reference . Please tell me how to configure this .

    Hello [mention:466b8d91c6644a268a25841953c896cf:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] 

    You can have Record-Type Relationships and achieve what you are expecting. Also I would recommend use ID of your Reference data to be saved in the Patient Record, so that later if any values from your reference would update It will reflect the same here as your PK will be pointing to the same data.

    2. Select your RecordType which would be your Reference
