Cannot check "Use in Quick Search" for a specific data field.

Hello,

Created a GI and added all of our data fields.  Inquiry loads perfectly fine.  However, we can’t search the data field “InventoryCD_Description”.  When I try to check the box that says Use in Quick Search, it doesn’t let me.  Any idea why?

@bigred1022 Please be informed those fields which has this format DAC Name_abcd (contain underscore) usually not the real field on Database Table but using some foreign key to get info from other tables and bql fields. In this case it would be impossible for GI to run the keyword search as it can cause huge performance issues.

That being said, and in your case I suggest to use InventoryItem.Descr instead which is basically the same field and you should be able to have the use in quick search enabled on it.
