Configuring values for a Help Desk lookup field

Track-It! provides eight custom lookup fields each for tickets and assignments. You can use the lookup fields to customize the Ticket or Assignment form. Before you can use the lookup fields to customize a form, you must configure the values that you want displayed in the lookup field. For example, you want to add a lookup field that allows users to choose a preferred laptop model. In this case, you must add all the laptop model numbers as values for the lookup field before adding the laptop lookup field to the Ticket form.

Important

You can only customize the field label of a Help Desk lookup field after you add the field to a custom form. For more information, see Customizing forms for groups.
