Display field for a reference variable

[Community Alums]

Hello ,

We have a reference variables for a user table.

We need to only display UserID in the variable and set the User ID. It is not working with attribute

Display value at sys_user is Name field so you can't change it to some other field.

If you want to see employee_number after selecting the value then that field should be made as Display=True at dictionary level, but I won't recommend this as it will be platform change.

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

ref_ac_columns_search=true,ref_ac_columns=employee_number,ref_ac_columns_display_value=true

In above variable we need to display only numbers and set same to variable

Hi @Community Alums 

As already suggested and mentioned, the OOTB user_id display value cannot be changed, and it's not recommended to do so. Additionally, adding the employee number as a variable won't serve the purpose, as the user agent won't know whose employee ID it is.
