Shared lookups

Shared lookups are fixed values that need to be shared between multiple solutions.

Example: Company department names

Shared lookups contain some restrictions on use

• Not editable through the frontend
• Not included in solution backup

In most cases a seperate solution for metadata is better, using parent keys in the solution.

Setting up a shared lookup

1. Add list of shared values
   • Create a named list
   • Add values to the list
2. Add a new field of the type: Lookup shared
