Lets take caller as example and consider below records as user.

1. Fname Test

2. Test Lname

 

If glide.ui.ref_ac.startswith is false AND sys_user.autocomplete.contains is True

User will get these two record in search result while entering key word "test".

 

Otherwise it will show only 2nd record (ie which starts with test). And this applicable for all reference column
