Why Did We Build It?

Default SharePoint Lookup only support lookup within the same site, so it will be limited when user want to lookup from another site. In addition to other SharePoint Cross-Site lookup products with lookup cross site function, SharePointBoost Cross-Site Lookup provides three useful features.

SharePointBoost Cross-Site Lookup users can convert Cross-Site Lookup column into default SharePoint lookup type when they need to edit contents of Cross-Site Lookup column in datasheet view.

When users select objects, they do not have to scroll down through all objects. The find-as-you-type function makes SharePoint users easily select objects by one keystroke; all the words with the typed letter is shadowed and filtered in the dropdown list.

If the looked-up list is incredibly larger than usual, it is difficult for SharePoint users to choose one object from countless objects and the drop down list will be too long. Filter function helps a lot by supporting SharePoint users choosing some list view of the looked-up list to quickly find the object.
