Lookup Column
13 TopicsIs it possible to filter a lookup column using a specific criteria?
I have the following lists with a lookup column that has more than 5,000 items: Purchase Orders list PO Number - text Status - Active or Closed Invoices list PO Number - lookup column from Purchase Order Is it be possible to filter out items displayed in the lookup column based on (Status = Active) so that the app doesn't need to have too many items in the dropdown list and avoid the following error? "This is a lookup column that displays data from another list that currently exceeds the List View Threshold defined by the administrator (5000)." Note, I've tried to use a calculated column (IF(Status=Active,"PO Number","")) but this doesn't work. I saw a demo of custom InfoPath form with data filter but would like to investigate if there are other options first. Thanks!

We have an Online (M365) SharePoint, Modern experience, hosting a Document Library “DocLib”,with a [Countries] multivalued lookup column targeting column [Country] in a “Countries” List.This List also contains a [Region] column which relates any country to a specific region,and this column is imported in “DocLib” resulting in another column, [Countries:Region]. As [Countries] is multivalued, [Countries:Region] appears to be multivalued as well. But filtering, using the standard Filters pane behaves strangely on [Countries:Region]. We expected to be able to filter on any individual region a document can be relating to (through the countries the document is relating to). However, here is what we get: Instead of individual [Region] values, we get, in the Filters pane, individual “Sets of Regions” resulting from all regions related to all countries in [Countries] but there is more… Selecting individual Regions,work just as expected. In the picture you see Regions “Middle-East” and “Africa” selected and on the left,you can see that any document with at least one country belonging to these regions are displayed On the other hand selecting “Middle-East; Middle-East” in the Filters pane, which results from relating a document to both Oman and Saudi Arabia in my exemple, gives no result at all My expectation would be – Having in the [Countries:Region] Filters pane any individual distinct regions linked to the countries the documents in the view are relating to THIS IS NOT WORKING Also, No "combinations of regions" should appear in the pane, they do not work anyway Selecting the regions in the Filters pane would keep the documents that relates at least one of these selected regions -THIS IS WORKING JUST FINE Except that not all regions are displayed if not appearing individually and alone on any of the document of the view! Is this a bug? Did I miss something?1.7KViews0likes3CommentsHiding Lookup Column Values
Hello, I'm using a lookup column that displays dates in MM/dd/yyyy format from another SPO list. In my SPO form this lookup works well as a drop down for date selection. How can I hide values/dates in this lookup column/dropdown that have passed without deleting them? Is there a formula I can use to achieve this?2.1KViews0likes2CommentsSharePoint List lookup Column not Available in Power Automate

I have a 'main' list that needs to be looked up from other SP lists (ex. customer name column). The other SP lists are not within subsites where the 'main' list was created, they are in other separate sites. Site columns don't seem to support this as they are only visible to children subsites. Is there a way to achieve this with metadata, content types or do I need to duplicate the data in all sites and using a flow to keep everything in sync ?544Views0likes0CommentsUse lookup value in column formatting.

Hello, I am having issues with SharePoint Online Mobile App not showing the value of a Lookup field. Property managers are always out in the field, and they need property addresses to display on their mobile devices. I created a Site Column that is a Lookup field to have a master list of properties, to keep one source of "truth", so I only have to make changes to property additions/subtractions in one place, allowing the change to ripple throughout SharePoint. The issue that I run into is the mobile app shows "Read Only" for the property address on the mobile app, and doesn't show the actual property address. I do NOT want to have to update a dozen lists each time properties change, so I am asking for some assistance on how to overcome this challenge. I know JSON can achieve this by taking the Lookup value, and applying it to a text field, but I do not know JSON to this point. It is also a little clunky to have to add so many additional fields when the data is already in the custom list, but not showing on the mobile app. Does anyone have a workaround for this issue? Thank you in advance! This was my first post on this community thread. Kind Regards, Chris3.3KViews0likes2CommentsHidden Names are Displaying
We have hidden certain people from displaying in our Global Address book. Problem is that these hidden accounts show up in SharePoint lists that have people/group lookup columns. Is there a way to keep an account from showing up in SharePoint as well?1.2KViews0likes2Comments
