This setting determines whether lookup table records are selected from a drop-down list or from a search module.
•Select items from a drop-down list—Select this option if your organization always wants to display lookup table items using a drop-down list, no matter how many items there are.
•Select items from Lookup Module when there are more than 100 items—This option is recommended if there may be 100 or more items to display. If there are fewer than 100 items to display, the items will show in a drop-down list. If there are 100 or more, a search module with auto-suggest capability is displayed instead.
Note: The setting that you choose is the default selection for lookup items. The default item selection could still be overridden by developers for specific fields in the design.
