Referencing Price Book Entries in Custom Objects

I am attempting to populate the list price of a product on a custom object.  My first thought was to add a lookup field to "Product" on my custom object and then write a formula to reference the list price.  However, I can't see the price book entry or list price in any of the reference options.

 

In short, how do you reference the list price of a price book entry on a custom object?

 

Thanks,

 

Brian

Hi Brian,

 

This would be possible through coding because the intersection table called PriceBook entry table is only available through the API.

So you could write a trigger to put a value in the Price field everytime the custom object record  is created but it would not be a lookup just a static value. 

 

Hope this helps!
