Parent reference

This field creates a reference to another record. Useful in hierarchical data structures. This field allows the parent to implement List of Children type fields. In edit mode, this field displays as a black text box with text autocomplete, which means that the user must know at least some of the resume name of the parent they're looking for. Most times a simple drop down of options is preferred, in which case the field Lookup: Data item should be used. In most cases it is functionally identical to this field.

When writing javascript that reacts to changes in this field type use the following code, instead of onchange.
This snippit wil react as soon as an option is selected instead of when the user exits the field

$("#DATA_SELSKAB").on("autocompleteclose", () => {
    setTimout(setTimeout(() => {
        // Do stuff
    }, 50)
})
