Autocomplete won't allow new values

Posted on by 820

Hi

I added autocomplete control on one of textboxes but i noticed if there is no value on table it will not save the data.

Let's say i want to enter City Finland and it is not present so it is not allowing me to save this data.

Is there a workaround?

I have the same question (0)

    Hello @jja,

     

    I got your question, yes if the RECORD is not available and if you try to input the new data then the system won't allow to Save.

     

    Because ITS A REFERENCE FIELD, expected Behaviour.
