Suggestion for Auto Lookup Plug-in

Product Details

Auto Lookup Ver. 1.4.0 - Native Kintone Plug-in

Suggestion (Updated from Comment 3)

I think the Auto Lookup Plug-in can be improved by adding the ability to specify multiple Lookup fields to enable the auto-lookup feature (just as the Re-Lookup Plug-in does).

In the Re-Lookup Plug-in, you can choose one or more Lookup fields you want to target. So only the chosen Lookup fields will be modified by the Plug-in. If no specific lookup field is chosen, all the Lookup fields will be modified.

Another way to make this play well with the Advanced Lookup Plug-in would be:

Have the advanced lookup handle the event differently if a person clicked on it or if an API call or other automated feature set the value.

Reason for Suggestion

The reason for this suggestion is that I would like to use both the Auto Lookup Plug-in and the Advanced Lookup Plug-in on the same Kintone App.

If the Auto Lookup Plug-in also had a configuration like the Re-Lookup Plug-in , it would interact better with the Advanced Lookup Plug-in .

Then you could configure the auto-lookup feature to target all Lookup fields not associated with the Advanced Lookup Plug-in . Thereby reducing the number of clicks for the end user.

Hello, The idea is to be able to use both the Auto Lookup Plug-in and the Advanced Lookup Plug-in on the same Kintone App.

In the Re-Lookup Plug-in, you are able to choose one or more lookup fields you want to target. So only the chosen lookups are initiated, and if a specific lookup(s) is not chosen, then all the lookups are run.

If the Auto Lookup Plug-in also had a configuration like that, then it would interact better with the Advanced Lookup Plug-in.

Then you could configure the Auto Lookup to target all lookups not associated with the Advanced Lookup. Thereby reducing the number of clicks for the end user.
