Using lookups on filters, the selection values defined under Filter parameters can be substituted by other names in the client. To do this, a lookup table must exist that contains the selection values to be substituted in one field and the substituting terms in another field. Then in WebOffice author the lookup ID field must be defined, as well as the field containing the data to be displayed. The Check consistency option allows you to only make values from the lookup table available that actually exist in the data.
