Value Help on CDS association value

159 Views

Hello Experts,

I am developing a Fiori Elements List Report using CDS views with @UI annotations.

I have two CDS views representing Departments and Employees. Each Department has an associations "has_boss" with an Employee on "Department.boss_id == Employee.employee_id".

The Department view is exposed as OData service. I display each Department with its name and with the name of its boss (retrieved from the association).

I would like to give the user the possibility to edit the Department boss via a value help dialog. But for my understanding it is possible to have a value help dialog only on the attribute involved in the association (in this case "Department.boss_id"). Is there a solution to this scenario?

Thanks in advance.
