Filter Enum values in form lookup – D365 FO

 

When an Enum is added to a form control, by default all the enum values are displayed in the form as lookup . There are situations where only few of the enum values are needed. How can we do it?

1. Create a new form and add a new ComboBox control to it. In this post, let us take the enum ‘SalesStatus’.

2. Let us name the control as SalesStatusCombo.

        

3. As discussed , we are filtering the values of the Enum and display them in the lookup.

    The logic will be brought in Init method of the form . Given below the screenshot

    

4. Build the solution and the changes will be visible in the UI.
