    • Reference fields store a list of each user's recent selections to enable you to quickly select past values when filling in a reference field.

    By default, the system stores up to 15 selections from a reference field for each user in the Recent Selection [sys_ui_recent_selection] table. You can see the recent selections list by selecting an empty reference field.

    Remarque :
    • The system doesn't store recent selections for Service Catalog reference variables.
    • Recent selections aren't available in the Service Portal or mobile user interfaces.

    The system uses auto-complete to filter the list of recent selections to match the values that you enter.

    The system adds a Recent Selection record whenever you insert or update a reference field value. Administrators can control the number of recent selections the system displays with the glide.xmlhttp.max_choices system property. Setting the property to zero disables recent selections.
