Create multiple customized list views on reference field for the same table

I have multiple reference fields on different tables that reference a table on the CMDB. I need the list popup view to display different fields based on which form its on because not all CI tables use the same fields. I created a different list layout but it doesn't display the correct view. Anyone know how to force the view?

Hi Danielle,



At this time, they all use the same view "sys_ref_list" so changing it in one place, changes it for all. I've had the same wish for a while, but then I realize, I don't always need all the fields, I just need to pick a CI. There's "nice to have" and "must have". Additional list layouts always seems to come down to a "nice to have".



If you feel it is a "must have", I invite you to open an enhancement request.

I do not think it is possible. We can only set one popup view per table.

That's disappointing... Will rack my brain for other alternatives and submit an enhancement request. Thanks!


Hey Chuck, this was 7 years ago - did something change in this regard?
