Lookup setup

When a user wants to add a Line-item, they first search for a Lookup object (e.g. a product), then they choose a record from the search results, and set the quantity, etc.

In this setup screen, you can control the layout of the search results that users will see, in order to choose which Line-items they want to add.

For example, if you are using Opportunities as your Parent object, you might be looking up products to add them as Line-items.

Settings

• Column settings

  Select the fields that you want to appear in search results, from all available fields in your Lookup object. You can also control the layout.

• Virtual fields

  You can create columns that can temporarily hold and display values pulled from different DataSources.

  As well as the linked objects we have configured already, you can pull data from other Salesforce objects or from external systems.
