how to lookup contact and auto choose contact name

Posted on by CU07080733-3

Hi folks,

 

I have a lookup field (data type - "customer") from Enquiry Table on my power page. Due to the feature of this data type, there exists two lookup option - Contact/Account.

My question is:

How do I get rid of Account lookup option, and only keep the Contact lookup? 

If not possible, can I have the system auto-choose the contact lookup view and select the current user name for me like below? (so that user don't have to manually select) 

 

Sorry I know usually I just have to create a seperate new lookup but  I can't just delete this weird one as it's system-required.

    Hi @Pistachio2023,

     

    there should be an easier way, but I will need to try that somewhen in the future.

    For your purposes and a fast solution use Javascript and the .remove() function from Jquery to delete the Account option. You can also .hide() the enter dropdown so it will always stay on contacts which would be good for your case, I suppose.
