Change Item Lookup window to use Description instead of Short Description

Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

I am trying to find a way to modify the Items lookup window (Inventory > Cards > Items >> Lookup button) so that the second column shows the item's Description instead of the Short Description. I have been able to change the sort and show the Generic Description in the third column, which is what the client wants. I am using the SmartList version of the window. I would like to avoid using a SmartList Favorite for the lookup, as they have nearly 10,000 items and the favorite takes 30 seconds to load everything.

Is this something I would need to do through Modifier, or is there a setting in GP that I can use to adjust this? I client says it used to show the Description when they were on their previous server, but since the move it is not there anymore. I didn't see any modified forms to transfer when we moved them to the new server.

Thank you,

Kyle

RE: Change Item Lookup window to use Description instead of Short Description

Hi,

This is a Modifier thing. You'll need to edit the scrolling window and move the Item Description field up to the position of the Short Description. In modifier, the Short Description is ASI_Comment1.

Kind regards,
