Displaying description of key value in CRM WebUI

[former_member335403]

Hello everyone,

This is a CRM Web Client issue I'm having.

So until this day I have always done a description field together with a key field side by side.

But now a new request came in. The key-field this time is also the description field. The request is to only hold a key field because there is a domain table with text table attached to it.

I need to somehow to hold the key in my new created z-field and display the text that represents that key.

To try it out I created in Service requests (BT), a new Z field that has both search help and domain with domain table + text table. Using the AXT framework to extend the service requests.

The search help I created for it works great but the field in the UI displays the key and not the description. Now I could create a value field or change the getter method in the context node, but that means I would need to do that all over the system (10 different views that the field is now hosted in). Which I would like to avoid.

Is there any standard way to show the description of the text table without going over every view? is there like a central BADI or handler class I can create to do that? Or even better a customization to enable it?

Some tech info: we are using 7.4 version of the CRM (WEBCUIF 747)

Any help would be appreciated.
