Field tablecombo

Version: Pro.

Why this type

Select with search over embedded/custom table rows. Combo alternative when the source is not an xPDO class. Requires Pro and advanced-fields capability.

When to use

• Pick a brand or vendor row from an MS table
• id from a Collections column
• Dynamic pick when modResource is wrong

Tips

ModResource picker → relation or combo. Multiple ids → tablemulticombo.

Similar types

• combo for a standard xPDO class
• embeddedTable to render many rows by table_key
