    Make sure that the field uses VendAccount EDT (or an EDT extending from it). That's all.

    The EDT has a relation to VendTable and the table has the right fields in the AutoLookup property.

    That's a very different question that would require a different approach. Think twice whether it's really necessary; using account number is the usually way across the system and you would diverge from it.

    The easiest way could be using a direct reference to DirPartyTable (instead of VendTable) and filtering out records that aren't used in VendTable.
