SharePoint Record Entry
Hello,
I have a (2) SharePoint lists RecordEntry and EmployeeData. The RecordEntry records are entered via mobile devices (i.e., phones, iPads) using Microsoft Lists. Fields that are entered include Text, and Multi-Choice. I am using the CreatedBy and Created to track who and when information was entered with an objective of notifying the employees supervisor when a record was entered that met certain criteria. It is my understanding that the Lookup function is NOT available via the mobile devices. EmployeeData includes information specific to the employee that is entering a record. One specific item is their Supervisor. So here is my question...
Can an employee enter their information (via the mobile device) and a Flow or Lookup occur in the SharePoint list at the "desktop level" to obtain the supervisors name from the EmployeeData list?
Example: Record is entered in RecordEntry by Bob via mobile device using MS Lists. His supervisors' name is Karen and that data is located in EmployeeData:
