Ref and dereference problme

I have a Studentslist table and orders table
in the "new student form "that I fill the “first name” and “last name” and I have a Column "full Name " with a formula CONCATENATE([First Name], “”, [Last Name])

in orders form, I have a ref type for column "Full Name " dropdown ’ ref to full name in sudentslist table

  1. when I open the dropdown I see besides the Full name I see a yellow triangle … why does it happened?
  2. I want that after I choose a name in the order form. I want that it will show me his Phone from the column Phone In the Studentslist table.
    I tried to put a formula in the Phone column in the form [Full Name].[phone] and it didn’t give me anything
    any advice?

A Ref value should be the key column value of the row referenced. The yellow triangle indicates the Ref value you’re using doesn’t match a value in the key column of the target table.

i dont know what i did’ but it disaper’
but now when i see the rec in google sheet in the column name i see a num or the key uniqueid

Tnx for the link
In my case can i make the custumer name a key value ?
but a key value sould be unique and names not always unique
There is other way to do it ? other method ?
