Primary name/name in picklist

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Probably a question with an obvious answer, but I don't see how to do it.

How can you choose a primary name and yet have another name appearing in the picklist: e.g. I have a person with first names "Joanne Maria Aleydis", who was known as "Alice". I want to have the full name as the primary one, but want to see only "Alice" appear in the picklist. I defined a nick-name "Alice" and chose the filter "synonyms", but nevertheless both names keep appearing. How can I get what I want?

 

Best regards,

 

Dirk

I don't think you can do it. if you have the picklist set to display primary names, then it isn't going to show the "Alice" non-primary name. If you have it set to display all names, then "Alice" will show, but so will the primary name. Why not make "ALice" the primary name?
