About Lookups

A lookup is a list of values. They are most often used to populate drop-down and multiple select lists. You can use lookups in custom fields, reports, forms, queries, and in grid or graph portlet filters. For example, a custom field for document status might contain a drop-down with values such as “Open”, “Closed”, or “Pending”.
