Lookup is a text field that allows searching and selecting the data within a widget which is likely to be the input.



Editable lookup feature also allows you to filter the data for the pre-configured (DS_KEY COLUMN) column in the lookup search widget. The value in the search column will filter only the column where the search value is listed.

The filter can be applied only to column which contains string.




For the selected data to be populated in the text box, JavaScript has to be manually coded in the Form listener.


For Example:

this.fm.registerHandler(CFEC.AFTER_SELECT, "LOOKUP", function(fm, event, fieldName, record)
{
	fm.model.setValue("LOOKUP", record.VALUE1);
});

Lookup is not available in JQuery Mobile.

  • Form Items >Data Selection>Lookup.


  • You can select a widget from the list of widgets that display after you click the Lookup form item.
