Make lookup filter available for multi-select picklist

[sjef_wijnen]

We have a SFM to let our engineers debrief their Work Order. In this transaction we use a lookup field to Activity Master. In the Activity Master we set up a lot of activities with a Product Family (Multi-Select Picklist). This means an action is applicable for 1 or multiple Product Families.

Now in the SFM I would like to limit the activities the engineer can choose, based on the Product Family of that Work Order. e.g. if the product family of the Work Order is "Laptop", I want the lookup screen to show all Activities that have "Laptop" chosen in the Multi-Select Picklist. Currently this functionality only works when the Activity Master record has only 1 value for Product Family, but I want it to work whenever one of the values selected is "Laptop".

Hopefully its clear! If not, let me know and I can try to explain further.

It would be useful for us to have the ability to filter even regular picklist values in an SFM.

For example, we may have a picklist with reasons why a tech cant finish a work order:

- Needs parts, I have to return

- Needs parts, doesn't need a return visit

- Customer Closed

- Need help from colleague

But if I have a SFM for each of these reasons, I would like a SFM for "Need Parts", and only let the tech pick these reasons:

- Needs parts, I have to return

- Needs parts, doesn't need a return visit

Instead of seeing the full list of picklist values as sometimes the list is very large and we want to be more targeted within an individual SFM.

Totally agree - would be very helpful to be able to filter the pick list based on another condition
