In the debugger, look at your “emp” entity. It will show you the fields *and* relations. Just use the name it shows for the relation, I.e.
$text:=$emp.Text and then access fields on $text like any other entity, or you can access the related one field directly. $description:=$emp.Text.description Just keep in mind, if you rename a field or relation, you must restart the database before you can use those renamed fields or relations.
