Lookup selected value shows ID/GUID vs the intended Column

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 7

Hello, I have a number of lookup selectors in my multi-step form. I have created new views for some of them so that when an item is selected, the visible value will not be the primary key Id or GUID. 

 

1. This seems to work on most of the selectors. Once selected it will display the intended column (name). However if a user moves forward in the form step and then goes back to review or update. The seleted value reverts to its Id/GUID.

 

2. In one case, the selector will only show the Id/GUID regardless of view. 

 

What can I do to make sure that the intended column value from the lookup is what the user sees?

    How is the Lookup being populated (are you populating with JavaScript)?
