I have a text box using the search functionality to search Lot Numbers. However I want it to link the Part Lot Number associated to the Part number on the Job. For example, in Job Entry, I am able to do a custom search on all Lot numbers but I only want it to search the associated lot numbers attached to that Job’s Part number. Is there a setting to bind the Lot’s Part Number to the Job’s Part Number when setting this up in Job Entry using Application Studio?

I’m not a Kinetic UI person yet, but can you do a BAQ search?

I’m trying to stay away from using a BAQ search but even if I did, how would I link the Part Number in the BAQ to the Job’s Part number so that it auto links it upon searching so the user doesn’t have to pre-populate the part number to search manually?
