 * [@manojmane29](https://wordpress.org/support/users/manojmane29/) you need to 
   set the value of the field to the guid of the target record. How you provide 
   record selection is up to you. Most common for reference tables is to build a
   dropdown. If number of records is large you may need to build an alternative 
   UI.

 * [@alexacrm](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alexacrm/) So the values will
   be GUID of the recordid and name will be the schema value correct ?

 * If the direct guid assignment does not work, try lookup syntax where the value
   is a serialized EntityReference:
 * value='{“LogicalName”:”account”,”Id”:”02ee3bae-1603-e711-80fa-5065f38be4f1″,”
   DisplayName”:”A. Datum Corporation (sample)”}’
 * DisplayName is optional for setting the value.
 * That syntax should work for multi-entity lookups like Regarding or Customer fields.
