Lookup Search

By double-clicking to edit a cell in a column where lookup entry is enabled, a dropdown will be displayed with candidate records to be referenced. If you wish to review detailed information about the records before selecting, click the search button [A] on top of the dropdown to display the Lookup Search dialog for more detailed information.

Lookup Search Dialog

The Lookup Search dialog displays referring records in a grid table format the same as the sheet.

Records can be queried using the search keyword [A]. The keyword is matched against each field using the matching method specified in "Lookup Editor Settings" in the column settings.

The grid table in the Lookup Search dialog displays a menu [C] in the column headers, just as in a regular sheet. Unlike the columns of the grid table in the sheet, only the following menus are available for selection.

  • Sort Asc / Sort Desc

  • Filter

  • Add Columns

  • Delete Column

Finally, check the Select Record radio button [B] for the record you wish to select and press the "Select" button in the dialog to determine the record to be referenced.

Features such as "Fixed Sort" and "Filter Groups" are currently not supported in the grid table within the Lookup Search dialog. Inline record creation/editing is also not supported.

Columns of the grid table in the Lookup Search dialog display the fields configured in "Lookup Name Field" and "Additional Display Field" in the Lookup Editor Setting. In addition, fields added or deleted by "Add Columns" or "Delete Column" in the Lookup Search dialog are automatically reflected in "Additional Display Field" in the Lookup Editor Setting.

The "Lookup Search Condition" specified in the Lookup Editor setting for a column is always applied to the query in the Lookup Search dialog. Filters applied within the dialog only act as additional query conditions and do not remove the lookup search conditions that have already been set.
