@Hafila Hatta ,

can you share what you have used while trying ref_ac_columns ?

@Hafila Hatta ,

ref_auto_completer=AJAXTableCompleter,ref_ac_columns=building_code;building_name,ref_ac_columns_search=true

however.......once the user selects the record, only the table single display value is shown in the field........ because snow reference fields can only display one display value after selection .......you cannot have a two field display in that single reference variable by default.......

if you use reference or list collector you can use ref_ac_columns so that when user types they see both the columns, but after selecting the record they will only see the value of field which is marked as Display=true

Instead if you use Lookup Select Box variable and point to that table you can show both columns

Something like this -> specify the columns in Lookup label fields as comma separated

After Selecting the record you will see both the columns
