Advanced find is well-known, but have you heard of advanced lookup?
Advanced Lookup
We can quickly search for, explore, and pick entries to populate a lookup field using all of the available filters. This offers an exciting lookup experience since we can see all of the columns in a view to find the proper record. To display records, the columns can also be sorted.

With advanced lookup, we can see the results as you type. View results without having to retype your query by switching to another view or an entirely new table.
- To locate the row you’re looking for, type search text into the search box. The search text is kept when you switch views.
- Change views: Select a suitable view.
- Sort: To sort in ascending or descending order, use the arrow at the top of any column.
- Only my records: Only the rows that you own will be displayed.
- Create a new record: Opens the quick create form, which allows you to add a new table row. The advanced lookup grid will refresh and show the newly added entry when you save the new row.
