Lookup Control is a component used for displaying data in a tabular format and comes with various configurations for data manipulation and presentation. It is used for displaying and searching for EmpowerID objects.

To view it in the EmpowerID Web User Interface, you must place it within a workflow.

This is how a lookup control looks in Workflow Studio.

Grid Columns

  • Grid columns are properties of your object.

  • Their labels can be localized strings.

  • You add columns using the “Lookup Designer” menu.

  • Columns can be added individually or as a group by selecting pre-defined “Grid Types” – these are xml definitions stored in SQL for common scenarios.

  • Grid columns can be reordered by grabbing and dragging them.

  • Grid columns can have “Value Formats” assigned to render dates or checkboxes, etc.

When click on Lookup Designer → New Column a Field Selector dialog box will appear.

Use the Value Format property to render the field in different formats.

Use the Label property to set the column name.

Use the Field Name property to show the data in the particular column.

Edit Search Criteria

  • Many methods support Advanced Search

  • Fields added must be searchable / indexed.

  • No labels
