newbie question: how to read {!Opportunity_Probability} field

Hi
 
I would like to create a custom field under the Opportunity Products object. It should contain the Total Price of the product multiplied with the probability of the opportunity.
I tried to make a field with type formula, and tried to type this: {!Opportunity_Probability}  *  {!TotalPrice}, but I received an error message: Error: Field {!Opportunity_Probability} does not exist. Check spelling.
How can I solve this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Bg

Currently you can't because parent or child fields are not vaialble to the object in formula

ie in your case you cannot access the Opportunity probability in Opportunity Product because it is a field of the parent Object (Opportunity)

Regards

PS: I do not know if it is going to change in Winter Release (Ron? Benji? an hint)

Hi Fox,
 
Than you for your reply. I'm sad :smileysad:.
Do you know any workaround on this?
I read a post somewhere which said that the cross object reference will be available from nov. 6. on Salesforce.
Could somebody confirm this?
Thank you
