I have a record group called employee number values: employee number, last name and first name.

There is an lov on employee number, returning employee number, last name and first name.

There is also an lov on last name , returning employee number, last name and first name.

The user can find records by either the employees number or the employees last name.

If the user finds the employee via the lov in employee number, the form still wants to verify the last name column(the find box is displayed with the last name appearing). How do I stop this? I need to indicate the last name field is okay if populated by the employee number lov.

after calling the lov set all returned items to valid (SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('<block>.<item>, ITEM_IS_VALID, PROPERTY_TRUE). so the when-validate-item trigger (or the lov which validates the item) will not fire.

Hello

Thank you very much! I set the item property in the post_text_item trigger to 'true' for the items 'employee number' and 'last name'.
