    Hi Andre,

    Please find the below image,

    When i select the contractor , it should display my worker list in the List .The table has the referenceId of the hcmworker field.

    The above employee lookup should be form specific.

    Thanks,

    Kavitha

    I think your data model needs more attention. You should some kind of a link field between the tables, instead of using a name as a key / relation. Names are not unique.

    Hi Kavitha,

    Can't you filter your workers by that new field?

    If you can, you might simply save the filter and share it with your colleagues.

    When they open the workers they can simply apply the filter that you saved and shared.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Kavitha,

    Can you confirm if the new table should have a reference to a contractor? The short description is not fully clear to me. Instead of a name field, you can better use the record-ID reference which is used across the standard application. What exactly do you mean with "list those employees when I select...". Is it just a lookup of all contractors or does the data in the lookup needs to get filtered based on the contractors setup in the custom table?
