Hi everyone,

I’m building a key-tracking system in Memento Desktop Pro (Mac) and I’d really appreciate help understanding how to work with Link to Entry fields inside Script or Calculation fields.

Here’s the structure I’m working with:

🧱 Libraries:
Clients: holds basic info about each client.
Keys: each entry represents a physical set of keys, linked to one client (via Link to Entry).
Key Holders: includes both individual team members and the storage locker.
Key Transactions: logs every key handover — from one Key Holder to another.

In Key Transactions, I have two fields of type Link to Entry:
From: the current key holder
To: the new key holder

What I’d like to do is create a script or calculated field that generates a short sentence like:
"Joana picked up from the locker."
"Joana returned to the locker."
"Joana handed over to Madalena."

These sentences should be based on the values selected in From and To.



❓My question:

How can I reference those linked entries in a script or calculated field?
Is there a way to get their names or custom fields from the linked library?

Any guidance, examples, or advice would be hugely appreciated!

Thanks in advance 🙏

Mmm

Вариант решения.
Дольше пришлось разбираться в связях и определении задачи.
Когда есть тестовые библиотеки всегда легче.
