Look-up type properties

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

Is it possible for Alfresco to have a content property that will look-up other library/space document's metadata (like the one in SharePoint).
Basically the values of this property should reflect the documents' metadata which have been look-up.

Thank you,
Sumeth

Yes, it is possible to do this. What you are asking for is a "dynamic constraint". You will need to write a custom constraint using Java to implement the lookup. Here is a post on the topic but there are several others.
