Default Lookup field search to wildcard

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2,175

Hi all,

I know it's obviously not ideal but I'm wondering if it's possible to default a specific lookup field to a wildcard search instead of a user having to put the asterisk before it.

Can be out of the box or via javascript code if need be.

I've searched and one method is using a plugin. Is there another method?

Kind regards,

Mike

    Hello Mike,

    The only other way is to create custom PCF control.

    Hi

    If you need to filter data returned you should use addCustomFilter  - docs.microsoft.com/.../addcustomfilter

    Thanks in advance
