Quick Find View Limitations

As I understand it there is a single quick find view per entity in CRM 2011. This quick find view is used as the search basis for all grid view quick searches, as well as lookup searches within lookups to that entity in other forms.

The limitation comes when you want to have different search columns for different lookups and even different views.

Is there any way to define different quick find views on an entity to allow you to define different search columns for lookups vs views?

Re: Quick Find View Limitations

Hi Frank,

Thanks for your feedback, agreed it would be a very useful future enhancement.

Unfortunately advanced find or filtered view will not suit our needs as the requirement is for a specific search within a lookup to the Contact entity. These search requirements are different to the other Contact lookup search requirements in other parts of the system.

Re: Quick Find View Limitations

The quick find view find columns defines all the columns that is search for the entity's views. There isn't anything separated. It would be a good suggestion for future enhancement.

Maybe use advanced find or filter view for now.
