Allow custom lookups in Timecards/Grid Timecards not using Vista's built in lookup

Vista's built in lookups tool is very difficult to use as you can't enter select statements etc.

For example, for earn codes, I would only like to display a subset of codes to every user (I can currently do this), but if the current user is an administrator, show all earn codes.

If I used the lookups function available in the portal, I would be able to.

    Andre - Don't know if this will help, but we built a ud lookup in Vista which limits earn codes in the timecards based on PR departments.  Here's the Where Clause that maybe you could tweak to fit your needs?

     

    PREH.PRCo=? AND PREH.Employee = ? AND 1 = CASE

    WHEN PREH.PRDept IN (01,02) AND PREC.EarnCode in (1,4,5,20,35,50,60,65,75,95) THEN 1

    WHEN PREH.PRDept IN (03,43) AND PREC.EarnCode in (1,4,5,20,35,50,60,65,75) THEN 1

    WHEN PREH.PRDept IN (10,15,20,21,23,25,31,32,33) AND PREC.EarnCode in (1,4,20,3,5,30,34,35,36,37,38,40,41,42,50,55,60,65,70,75) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END

    Hi Michael,

    Could you explain how I can assign a Portal Lookup for the values in Grid Timecard?
