Reltio Connect

Hi Team,

As I can see, during data-model creation, there is an option to select lookup type. But this lookup type(for example- rdm/lookUpType/Prefix) is directly connected to the associated RDM for that tenant.

Is there any way to build a custom lookup type, where I can directly use one entity from my tenant(MDM) as a lookup table instead of RDM?

The idea in Reltio is to use the lookups in RDM.  There is no provision to duplicate that functionality in the hub

Debabrata, 

Gino is correct in that there is no way to redirect RDM to use an entity type in MDM as a lookup. That said, you always have the option of doing that yourself by standing up, in your case, a Prefix entity type and creating a reference attribute to that entity type. From the perspective of a user in the UI, the behavior is similar to that of a true RDM lookup. The downside however is that there is no in-built, automatic transcoding of source values for Prefix as records are being loaded into MDM. You would have to build a wrapper in your integration to accomplish this and any reverse transcoding for records going out the door back to an operational system.
