I'm trying to Create a summary field on an Object that counts the number of references for an applicant.  I created an object for candidates but I don't think it is a "master" do i have to create a summary lookup relationship for this to become a master object so that I can create a summary field??

    Hi Nathan,

    The two objects should be in Master-Detail relationship if you want to create a Roll-Up summary field on the Master Object. in your case the two objects seems to be Candidate and References

    Create Candidates relationship field on the Child Object as a Master-Detail relationship field.

    And then create a Roll-Up field on the Master object which will summarize the No of References field on the Child object.

    Please let me know if it helps you and solves your problem.

    Let me know if you need more assistance.

    Thanks,
