Yes! I think you need to create a custom picklist to show it as a picklist instead of lookup because its behavior is also same and you can not change the value once selected.

Hi,

 

I am creating visualforce page to create New User using standard controller.

The page is displaying all other fields exceot User Type.

I have also created one record, by default it has got Salesforce as Usertype(User License).

Why the visualforce page is not displaying User Type field?

Cheers,
Devendra S

Are you trying to do something like this ??

 

<apex:page standardController="User">
<apex:form>
    <apex:inputField value="{!User.UserType}"/>
</apex:form>
</apex:page>

 

If yes then it is displaying me the value, and if not then please post your code here.

 

Thanks

I am using the same statement as you have mentioned,

 

I am getting the User Type as a text, but it is not displaying the picklist.

Indeed! Once you have selected the user type on user then you can nor change it.

Hi,

 

If i create a custom picklist to replace lookup, then i will have to use extensions to bind those picklist with the data.

 

Please correct me if i am wrong.

Hi,

 

On my visual force page, UserType field is not visble

 

I have used this statement : <apex:inputField value="{!User.UserType}"/>  but UserType field is not visible.

 

In standard User functionality UserType and Profile are picklist. Profile  picklist is depend on UserType/UserLicense. How to handle those dependency between fields? How can i convert lookup box into the picklist?

 

Cheers,

Devendra S
