Quickfields - Lookup does not list all tables in a database

posted on January 14, 2020

I have a table called oe_hdr in the database. But it doesn't show up in the the table drop down using the Lookup object. What would filter some tables out?

If I open studio and login with the same user, I can query the table to verify it exists.

Then when I type it into the Quickfields lookup field, it does not show in the list.

If you go into the configuration of the ODBC Data Source that you are using, can you change the default database from 'master' to whatever database that table is in? That has worked for me in the past when the Quick Fields list doesn't show the specific table I'm looking for.

Oh we are using an SQL connection. The tables listed here are in our database, it is just filtering out some tables.

Are the tables in the user's schema? Quick Fields, unlike Workflow, only retrieves objects from the user's schema. This is a known  issue. #219537

They are all in the dbo schema, which is the group that I am in since I am using the built in sa user. Is there any way to list them in alphabetical order, I am wondering if there is an issue with typing the name of the table.
