I'm trying to use a autocompleter that is to be built from a list (of
objects).
I want the objects id to be the value of the option and code to bethe label
to be shown in the autocompleter dropdown options.
I should be shown codes as select options in the dropdown and when I select
any of the code, the corresponding id should go as the value that has been
selected
Pointers on this would be of great help
