Create a Lookup Set Field

After configuring the lookup-set definition, configure the lookup-set fields. Lookup-set fields are categorized as follows::

  • Selection Fields: These fields represent the source fields available in the Canonical XML used for enrichment.

  • Result Fields: These fields are the destination fields available in the Canonical XML that holds the enriched data.

These configured lookup-set Fields get reflected in the Lookup-set detail as headers. For more information, see Define a Lookup Set Definition Record.
