Display custom field in Pay Period lookup instead of Pay Period Number

Posted on by edvella

I am working on a PowerApps solution where I have added the existing Pay Cycle (cdm_paycycle) and Pay Period (cdm_payperiod) CDS entities into the solution. Then I have a new custom entity which has two lookup fields set to Pay Cycle and Pay Period so that the user can select these as part of their process. The resulting form displays the pay cycle and pay period lookup fields as follows:

Both lookup fields are showing the Primary Name Field once I select one of the choices. In the case of the pay period it is the Pay Period Number as shown here:

My questions is, is it possible to show a different custom field in the lookup once selected, either by setting this field as the primary field or by another means?

Hello Edvella,

As this seems to be more related to the Power Apps side, we do not have a forum specifically devoted to questions at this depth when integrating with D365HR and CDS. We can move this into the Dynamics General forum queue to see if anyone has worked with something similar, but for something related to creating and using a custom entity, it may be best served by opening a support case directly with the Power Apps team - particularly if there are issues with setting up the custom field.
