Set up validation rule of type Configurable lookup

You can set up a configurable lookup to define the possible options in a field.

You can define the possible options for a configurable lookup in these ways:

• User defined list: Set up the desired options manually.
• Dynamic query: Apply a dynamic query to define the desired options.

To apply a configurable lookup, set up a validation rule of type Configurable lookup. You can use a configurable lookup on several validation rules.

This topic explains how to set up a configurable lookup.

Use validation rules to check if the data is in line with the defined standards.
To validate data, you can use several validation types. This topic explains how to set up the Configurable lookup validation type.

Use a configurable lookup validation to add a custom lookup to a field and to validate if the field value matches a value as defined by the configurable lookup.

Note: If the field, to which the configurable lookup is applied, already has a lookup, the configurable lookup overwrites the existing lookup.

Before you can set up a configurable lookup validation rule, set up the configurable lookup to be used.
