Multiple Content Types Lookup Field

[TylerCrummett]

Hey All,

I am operating on SharePoint Online and I have a document library called Customer Agreements with three different content types(A, B, & C). There is a field entitled Business Partner and it uses the Cross-Site Lookup to another list called Business Partner. On the Business Partner list we only have one content type, so no problems there.

However, when creating a new item on Customer Agreements, the field for Business Partner only shows up on the default content type A and NOT on B and C. Is there any special configuration I should be putting on either the Customer Agreements document library or in the Plumsail Cross-Site Lookup advanced settings?

Cheers,
Tyler

Hello, Tyler!
It's really easy to do - go to the list, switch to classic Sharepoint if you are using modern design, select List Settings in the ribbon:

Find Content Types section and click on content type you want to add Cross-site Lookup to:

Next, add Cross-site Lookup by clicking Add from existing site or list columns:

Finally, select Cross-site Lookup column and it to the content type:

Now it will be both present on the default form for this content type and you'll be able to add it in Forms Designer, if you are using it.
