I have a custom field we've added to the Incident Task form for an External Vendor Ticket #. The client wants to be able to search on that field from the global search field in the header, just like searching for an Incident # or Task #. Is it even possible to configure a field to be searchable?
Solved! Go to Solution.

If the table is available in the Search Groups then all fields should be searchable. Looking at the OOB search group for "Tasks" I do not see incident_task as an available search table.

I went into the Task search group and added the Incident Task table, but I still cannot get a search of that field to work.

I also turned on the Display field in the Dictionary for that field and that worked. Wonder though if that might cause issues down the way.

That wasn't it. Took that back off, added a Vendor ticket # to another Incident Task and no go. But I can still search the other one. Back to square one.
