changing an integer field to a relate field

I created a field for "client_id" which exists across all of my modules, however in the calls module, as well as others I need this field to relate to an accounts module field with similar values. Particularly here I am trying to create a subpanel in the accounts module which will search the "client_id" field of the calls module and return results based on it. However it is coming up blank .

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There's a guide to how to create a subpanel from a custom query here - https://developer.sugarcrm.com/2015/05/18/creating-subpanels-with-custom-results-in-sugar-7-5/

In your case, the query (in the accounts module) would be something like:

    protected function getCustomJoin($params = array())
    {
        $sql = " JOIN (";
        $sql .= <<<MYCUSTOMQUERY
SELECT
    calls.id AS my_custom_id
    FROM
        calls
    WHERE
        calls.deleted = 0
        AND calls.client_id = '{$this->focus->client_id}'
MYCUSTOMQUERY;

        $sql .= ") calls_to_show ON calls_to_show.my_custom_id = calls.id";
        return $sql;
    }
