How to display the parent table field in BrowseDialog form ? for example, an invoice that include the customer name in BrowseDialog and allows for searching and sorting.



Another question is how to include the parent table field in the maintenance form and listview ? For example, an invoice that include the customer credit limit in the form.

The browse dialog is primarily used to search a single entity.  However, you can associate a business object with a view which would give you this type of flexibility since it can span multiple tables.  But as of now, the BrowseDialog is really geared for searching a single business object.

If you want to show information associated with another business object within the same browse, look at the sample in the "Samples and Solutions" are of the forum on from the main page.  There is a sample that shows how to use an InformationPanel within the browse dialog which ultimately allows you to do anything you want.
