CnResourceSelect

An OpenRegister object picker that can create a new object from the typed search term.

It searches a register + schema for objects whose label matches what the user types and renders them as options. When the typed term matches no existing object, a synthetic "Create '<term>'" option appears at the bottom of the list; choosing it persists a new object (via useObjectStore().saveObject, writing the term to labelField) and selects it — so a user who can't find a record never hits a dead "no results" path, they just type the name and make one inline.

This closes the gap where a plain NcSelect against OpenRegister offers no way to create a missing option (e.g. an agent logging a call for a client that isn't in the system yet).

Usage

<CnResourceSelect
  register="pipelinq"
  schema="client"
  label-field="name"
  :model-value="clientId"
  :input-label="t('pipelinq', 'Client')"
  @update:modelValue="clientId = $event"
  @create="onClientCreated" />
