Child Related List at Parent Level

Does anyone know of a way to display a Child's related list at the Parent record level?  I have a custom object with a Master-Detail relationship to the Opportunity object.  We utilize DocuSign and have created the DocuSign envelop button on the child object.  As a result, the Docusign status related list is not available at the Opportunity level.  Is there any way of getting it there?  Thanks

So you have the relationship of Opportunity -> Child Object <- Related Object and you want to get a list of related objects from the child to display on the Opportunity?

The only way you could have the related list come up natively with that configuration is if you went into the docusign object and added a lookup field for opportunity. Then you should see a related lost available on your opportunity layout designer for you to add in.

You could probably then do some kind of workflow or trigger on docusign insert that got the childobj.parentid from its related child obj and save it in the new opportunity lookup field on docusign.

There are other ways of getting information at the opportunity level but that's the only way I can think of to get the entire related list.
