How can I make sys_user available to a custom application?

[norbert2]

Hi.

I am developing an application. Within the application I have a variable (type 'Lookup Select Box') accessing the table sys_user. It all works well in Global, but not in my custom application. The User Table is not visible. Extending the user table to make it visible in my application doesn't work either. Again sys_user is not visible. What am I missing here? How can I make the User Table available to my application? You advice would be very much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Hi Norbert,

Try changing your variable type from Lookup Select box to Reference (thanks for the screen shot.)

HI Norbert,

Can you try to update "Lookup from table" field from list view.

Making it a Reference did the trick. Thank you Guys.
