Extender functionality similar to Enter/Match invoices?

I am currently testing out some custom eXtender development using the Microsoft VPC image for GP 2010. What I am looking to accomplish is something similar to how GP uses PM Enter/Match Invoices. But a mechanism to maintain pending credits we are due from our retail compant's consginment vendors.

Long story short is I want to maintain a listing of consignment items that we are due credit for. These would be kept in a separate group of the eXtender tables as line items of non-inventoried units. When the credit memo paperwork finally arrives from the vendor we typically don't always get credited for the entire report we sent them for a billing cycle. So the enduser would check off those items in GP that we did receive credit for. That detail window would be based on a lookup of all uncredited items and the checked items then would feed their item cost totals back over to the PM Transaction Entry parent window. And I'd have a straightforward mechanism to separate out the items we received credit for versus those items still outstanding we are awaiting credit memo for.

Using eXtender I have been able to create the custom form listing each item. And I enabled the custom form to be included in lookups. But when I try to feed over to the custom detail window the lookup is only bringing over the ID field prompt value. I need it to populate the detail row with the other values associated with that selected ID field (item number, item cost, etc.).

What am I missing? Since I'm not attaching screen shots if you just look at the standard PM Enter/Match Invoices mechanism you can see what I'm trying to do. Any help would be appreciated!
