Search Option - Sales Lines list page

Dear Experts,

We are facing an issue with the Search functionality on a list page in Dynamics 365 Business Central.

When we enter a value in the Search field that exists in the Sell-to Customer Name column, the system does not return the expected records. However, if we search for the same customer name on the Customer List page, the search works correctly and the records are displayed as expected.

We understand that filtering can be used to locate the records, but we would like to understand the following:

  1. What is the reason that the Search function is not searching the Sell-to Customer Name field on this list page?
  2. Are there any page properties, field settings, or limitations that control which fields are included in the Search functionality?
  3. How can we configure or resolve this issue so that users can search records using the Sell-to Customer Name directly from the Search box?

Your guidance on the root cause and possible solution would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your support.

    Hello,

    Is Sell-to-Customer Name visible on the page? Because when it is not visible BC will not be able to search.


    You can use the Personalize option to add that field to the list page. This might help with the search.




    Could you please tell me which version of Business Central you're using? I'm using Business Central 28 (SaaS), and I'm able to search by Sell-to Customer Name without any issues.
     
    Hope this helps resolve your issue.
