Posted on by abd.sallem.bernous

Hello.

I am creating a mobile action (insert sales lines). I have two fields (site and warehouse), the two of them are lookup fields , i added a lookups for these fields succefully but it's shows me the all list of warehouses . What i try to do, is to filter on warehouse lookup list based on Site value .

I have to do this with javascript and add it as a logic in my Mobile workspace. Unfortunately these is not a lot of documentation to explain this framework , if someone have some documentation or a solution i will appreciate your help.

Thank you ,

Best Regards,

Hi abd.sallem.bernous,

There are some out of the box mobile workspaces. You can export these and re-import with another name. Then you are able to reverse engineer how Microsoft solved certain scenarios themselves.

Hi,

Im facing a similar issue. I need a lookup that filters based on the data in the page that called the action.

I looked at the metadataservice.configurelookup but the documentation on datafilter lookupmetadata is empty.

Did you manage to make any progress from your side?

Hello Norbert Spiteri ,

I tried to search in out of the box mobile workspaces as André Arnaud de Calavon told me (thank you by the way), unfortunately i didn't found any scenarios with dynamic lookup . I don't have solution for the moment i let you know if i will find a solution.

thanks you,

Best regards,

Thanks for the update.

I'm running a search on the Scripts folder in the packageslocaldirectory for places where configurelookup is used.

I found an interesting one which could help us and it is in the CostAccounting.js. Here is a summary of the important lines:

var workspacePage = metadataService.findPage(pageNames.workspaceConfiguration);

var gridControl = metadataService.findControl(workspacePage, 'Grid');

var isPublishedControl = metadataService.findControl(workspacePage, 'CostControlWorkspaceConfiguration_IsPublished');

var craftedFilter = gridControl.Id + '.' + isPublishedControl.Id + ':Is:1';

metadataService.configureLookup('Select-configuration-1', 'WorkspaceConfigurationId', { filterContext: craftedFilter });

I didnt have time and urgency to look into it further. I only found that example but I was wondering how I could make it look at the caller form's data.

I am also wondering what is the future of mobile workspaces and whether its even worth investing on given PowerApps.
