Hi Team,
Inside incident form, we have customer field which is reference field of user table. when we search for a particular user by lookup using list, we are not able to find the user but when searched globally in the user table, we can find the user and is active.
Could you please help us identify the root cause for the same.
Regards,
Padmaja.

Hi Padmaja,
Kindly check if there are any reference qualifiers for that field, as an admin, right-click and click the show field.
You should see a pop up like the above, in my case users with role ITIL or sn_incident_write only be showing in the assigned field.
similarly, you might have a ref qualifier.
Thanks

Hi,

So please select company first and then click to search in user field

Hi Ankur,
Thanks for your reply. The company filed is present in user table and it is filled with a value for all the users. But we are not able to find only some users using lookup.

Regards,
Padmaja.
