Adding Field Filters to a Reference Entity

To control which values appear in a lookup list by user role, create a field filter on the reference entity that contains the list. Field filters are case insensitive. Field filters affect lookups, but not dependent lookups.

If you implement field filters on a reference entity, and then in the business entity you add a field filter on a field that uses that reference entity, the field filter on the business entity takes precedence.
