Hi

i am tying to add a drop down in that instead of showing default entity value, i need to display some other column as selection. 

can anyone help me in this. 

ex: First screen is showing "New" as material name as selection, but i need to show "PH2" as product hierarchy on selection.

    This is product design already. Dynamic CRM will show primary field attribute as a bigger text. The other will based on the default view order. If you want to switch it. Then you need to switch the primary field.

    Hi Yogesh,

    If I understood your requirement - you want to show some other column value on lookup from same record.

    Through normal configuration you can only achieve this via proper design for entity

    So it will look like this:

    With Customization you need to write javascript on onload/onChange event -

    Retrieve this field create lookup value with display name as that column

     const object = new Array();
                                object[0] = new Object();
                                object[0].id = id;
                                object[0].name = column name you want to display;
                                object[0].entityType = entityName;

    and then set on that lookup
