Hi,

I wanted to know if there is any way to search any keyword in document id field in list view apart from sys_id search.

Thanks

Hi Priya,

The document id field is like a reference but it does not allow dot walking and hence you cannot do search on other fields other than sys_id.

Hi Priya

Add the field to the list view and then in the top of the list view you will see a search dropdown where you can select the document id field and can do the search.

hello,

 

thanks for your reply. I can search thru sys id but want to know if there is any other user-friendly way to search

Hi Priya,

Users could search easily from here in the List view.

Hi Priya,

I think you can search by keyword also instead of sys_id in the search dropdown. If that keyword present in the display value of that reference field, then it will be shown in search results, otherwise not.

Another options if to use filters in the list view, and click on show related fields and then you can search on any field of the referenced table.
