As you see above, I want to make the Address1:City column searchable. When I insert somethings in the search box right up corner, it searches only by name. 

Is there any way to change this?

    Hello,

    I also had search problem with quick find view in Microsoft Dynamics until I developed my own solution.

    its simple and fast to use!

    You can use it now

    I think this is exactly what you wanted

    Hi,

    My bad, i believe searchable configuration makes the field to be searched in Advance Find.

    You need to add Address 1:City as Find Columns in Quick Find Views.

    • Go to Advanced Settings -> Customization -> Customize the System.
    • Expand Entities -> <Entity Name> -> Views.
    • Open the Quick Find View and in click on Add Find Columns.
    • Choose Address 1:City column and Save the view.
    • Publish and Refresh.

    Hi Wahaj,

    Thank you.

    It is already set to Yes. But it does not search for Address
