Posted on by 1,295

Hi,

I just need help, I am currently working on creating autolook up using the EDT. I created the customized table and customized EDT and use the reference table pointing the EDT to the field from the customized table. 

unfortunately, after I add a field from PurchReqTable and must show a lookup field but its not working. I hope someone can share how to create Autolookup in EDT. Thank you.

    Good Morning SII1MNL,

    Great to hear that you got your issue resolved.

    Next time try to use the D365 forum to which I just moved this thread.

    Many thanks and best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Ada,

    I have solved now the issue, I am using D365FO, creating customized autolookup using EDT make sure that the EDT to be used in the customized field in the existing table must have relationship so it will become an autolookup.

    Hi,

    Can you let us know whether you operate AX2012 or D365FO?

    You just selected 'current version' as a tag but it is not clear to me what system version you operate.

    Would be great if you could keep us updated.

    Many thanks,

    Ludwig

    Hello,

    If you are in Dynamics 365 for finance and operation, table relations on EDTs are a legacy property and should not be used anymore. Some old system EDTs still have that property.

    If you are in Ax 2012, You can check this blog docs.microsoft.com/.../referencetable-table-references-on-edt
