Default "Look for / Look In" to Contacts and a specific system view in Look Up Records dialogue

Posted on by 107

Hi,

Is it possible to default a look up records dialogue to Contacts and a specific system view? (Not system wide, just for the Attendees field, see screenshot below)

Thanks you,

Ollie

    Hi,

    Does the current entity have a N:1 relationship with Contact entity in this field?

    For the types of fields,  please refer to the following documentation:

    Hi,

    You can find the form by navigating to Settings > Customizations > Customize the System and expanding the list of the entities.

    Double-click the lookup field and select the entity / default view as you want.

    Save and publish it, then you'll see the customization in your form.
