Customize display of reference field lookup?

[patk1000]

I have a table whose default list view looks like this:

But when I open the form whose field is a reference field, I only see a couple of the columns:

I see the reference lookup documentation, but I'm not going to ask my customers to create their own personalized lists. I just want to be able to set the view for all users of this table when using a lookup.

goto System UI--> lists

- search for that particular table (VIP categories in ur case)

- Search for view = Reference list for that table.

- in the list Elements Add the fields you need to show on the reference form   (you can select position as well)

Let me know if this helped

There seems to be a missing step here, at least for later versions.   Editing the view as described didn't actually populate the view with the changes, still just the single Display value on the list view.   However, when Configuring List Layout from that reference view, the ones that were entered manually in System UI -> Lists, appeared.   Then just saving made them populate correctly.

sorry Chauhan that did not worked, please provide other solution.

As administrator, click on the magnifying glass to look up the reference.   When you're on this new Reference search popup, try right-clicking there and selecting "Configure List Layout"

Those changes should stay, but also note, it may be overridden if you have a personalized view saved, so you may need to click the Personalize Gear and Restore Defaults to make sure you're not overriding the List Layout you specified.
