Purpose:

Used to show.

Overview:

A Lookup requires a stored procedure that returns multiple values or columns

If the stored procedure contains parameters, these become the Lookup Parameters

Usage:

A Lookup is used by attaching it to an Action Parameter. If the Lookup contains Lookup Parameters, these can be mapped to other parameters or defaulted.

Configuration:

Add a Lookup

Lookup Name:

The name by which the Lookup will be known within FrameworX.

(Hint) Use meaningful names as this will help identify the Visible when used elsewhere in FrameworX..

Database Connection:

The Database Connection containing the stored procedure to be used for the Lookup.

Stored Procedure:

The name of the stored procedure to be used for the Lookup.

The last select in the stored procedure becomes the result of the Lookup.

Stored Procedure

Value Field:

This is the value of the Lookup that is passed through.

Display Field:

This is the value that is displayed in the Lookup.

Hide Value Field:

This toggles whether or not the value field is displayed in the Lookup.

Cached:

Switches caching on or off for the Lookup result based on Lookup Parameter combinations.

Cache Lifetime:

If caching is enabled, the lifetime (in seconds) determines how long the Lookup result is held in cache. A value of 0 causes the Lookup result to be held in the cache permanently for the Lookup Parameter combination.
