Hi, We use an additional form for a Person Lookup where you can have a type ahead function that you can call via JavaScript. It is a custom form, but can be reused across SRM without the need for AIF's. We have done this for a number of lookup e.g. People, Cost Centre, CI's, etc.
https://communities.bmc.com/thread/124768 Actions then can be used to populate additional Read Only questions that expand on any of the information coming back from the lookups.

But I need to have the validation as both the fields are not menus and they r just only normal text fields. In your second point u said Actions and Setfields. As normal Sr will not have any basic form where can these actions can be perfomed?
