Catalog Variable Lookup Select: Returning a reference

[tahnalos]

Hello

I have a Record Producer that uses a Catalog Variable set up to be a Lookup Select Box as per the requirements of my client. 

I am trying to set up this variable to return a reference but it doesn't appear to be doing that.  It's returning a String so wondering if I'm missing something with how this variable is set up.

Thanks

@tahnalos Please make the following change on your Lookup Select Box. 

You should select the Sys ID as your value field on your Select box. Also, make sure to provide a field name in the Label field. In the current example I am referring to User table in my Lookup select box, I would like to capture user's sys_id and use their name field as label to capture user input.

Hope this helps.
