Available Filter in Search to enable CONTAINS

edited Jan 3, 2020 12:57AM in Search / Reporting 3 comments

I have a search I create that is bring back a list of customer records including a sub-record of reps assigned.

When I add the "reps assigned" to the available filter, it only brings up a list of:

- All-
- Unassigned -
- Mine -
- My Team

etc...

I would like to have the available filter use a contains for the sales rep (e.g. I can enter "Smith" for anyone with the first or last name "Smith").

I have my search results include a FORMULA (TEXT) field that brings back the name of the rep as a text value versus a record.  But I can't find a way to have that formula field show in the "available filters" for someone to enter "Smith" in to get a list back that meets that contains search.  The available filter list itself is set to "contains" so any fields I add that are text based (versus record based) work exactly as I want... I just can't seem to get the rep to show that way.

Howdy, Stranger!
