Reference field showing short description instead of name

Hi All,

In the Change Request table, I have two reference fields:

Incident (reference to incident table)

Demand (reference to dmn_demand table)

When I select an Incident, the reference field correctly displays the Incident Number.

But when I select a Demand record, the reference field displays the Short Description instead of the Demand Number — even though

In the Demand table, the Number field has Display = true

The Short Description field has Display = false

Still, the reference field shows the short description.

What could be the reason for this behavior?

Thank you.
