SDK - Change field type of input field in standard business object screen

[former_member195790]

Dear All,

I'd like to ask an advice for changing behavior or field type of standard input field as the image below.

In this case I need to change from object value selector to be drop down list.

Is this possible?

Hi Krit,

To make drop down to that field is possible if that field had only limited records in the table.

By using UI element dropdown by key.

Dear Pavan

Can you please give me  step by step for the solution mentioned above ?

I can not find available options  in extensibility explorer.

Best Regards,

Dear Krit,

Its not possible to make such changes to standard UI elements, only available options are enable, visible and mandatory options for standard elements.

hi, as Ajith said, that is not possibile but with a workaround you can add a custom field as a drop down and hide the standard field using the extensibility explorer.

Hello Alessandro,

could you please give a step by step description how to archive this?

That would be great.

Thanks,

Hello Astrid,

What Alessandro meant is to create an extension drop down field and add a logic to map the value selected from this field into the standard field which would be hidden from front end, so that the user can access the value from custom drop down and this value gets mapped to the hidden standard field.
