Input field suggest value on remote data

[Former Member]

I am trying to do the following and am unsure of how to go about it.

I am pulling data from a remote system that is a join of two tables. In the calling system, I would like to take advantage of the input field 'suggest values' option, as well as a search help. Because the data does not exist in the source system, I am unsure how to make this work.

I am thinking the join kills this functionality, since even if I make a local view I will still be missing the data locally.

Or maybe I am just not understanding completely how this works, any suggestions welcome please.

Hi,

I would try to create a search help based on a exit function module that would read the data remotely, and attach it to your data element.

This should work OK.

Best regards,
