When using a reference field with autocomplete, a result popup window below the field displays an invalid link with the text Showing 1 through 15 of ... at the top of the possible matches list. When hovering over this text, the cursor changes to a pointer, indicating that it is a link, but clicking it results in no action.
Log in to any demo OOB instance. Open an existing incident or create a new one. Make sure the form displays the Caller reference field with the auto-complete option correctly set. If the form is not in that state, personalize the form layout and the field dictionary as needed. For information, see Personalizing Forms and Auto-Complete for Reference Fields in the product documentation. Start typing in the caller_id field. Note the invalid misleading link on top of the listed resulting matches. This link should click into the list view for the search results.

We can modify the link's appearance so that users will identify it as a title for the list. The following global UI script will insert a style element which causes the link element to appear like a plain text element. On hover, the cursor doesn't change and the text is not underlined. It also hides the error element which appears after clicking the link. The style will apply to all reference variables on the traditional catalog item page. ( function (){ // Only run on catalog item pages if ( !~location.href. indexOf ( ' com.glideapp.servicecatalog_cat_item_view ' )) return ; /* Create the link element and define the style content This script has two style properties. The first hides the error message. The second prevents the "link" from looking like a link */ var link = document.createElement( ' link ' ), styles = [ ' div.fieldmsg-container > div[class="fieldmsg notification notification-error"] { display:none !important; } ' , ' tr.ac_header > td > a { user-select:none !important; cursor:default !important; text-decoration:none !important; } ' ]; link .type = ' text/css ' ; link .rel = ' stylesheet ' ; link .href = URL.createObjectURL( new Blob([ styles. join ( ' ' ) ], { type: ' text/css ' }) ); (document.head || document.documentElement).appendChild( link ); })();
