A lookup field provides a lookup button to open a lookup window to choose values from existing information. The standard lookups that are available are Company, Currency, Customer, Customer Class, Department, Employee, Employee Class, Item, Item Class, Pay Code, Position, Prospects, Sales Territory, Salesperson, Site, Tax Schedule ID, User, User Class, and Vendor.

Lookups can also be created from Extender Forms. Restrictions can be added to the lookup if the lookup is based on an Extender Form.
