A popup window is used to allow for a selection across a list of items in the application. In the example above, it is used to select an associated person for the Authorized Pickup field on a student record. To access a popup selection window, click the search icon to the right of the field (item 1). Once the popup is opened, you can select one of the displayed items (item 2) or search for a specific item (item 3). 

Some popup selection windows also allow for a new record to be entered directly from the window. In these instances, a tab will be available at the top (item 4). Simply click on this tab and enter the data to create the new record. 

An alternative to using the popup selection window is to enter part or the entire record name in the field. When the record is saved, it will validate if the entry is correct. It will also alert you if duplicate possible records exist for your entry.
