Hello!

Whenever a user searches in a SharePoint site for an item in a list, the right entry appears but the name that pops up is the value that the user entered in the “Quote #” column in the list (480364 in the attached image).

I was wondering if it is possible to change what property appears to make the search process easier for people (quote # is not the most recognizable property). In my SharePoint list, the Quote # column is not ordered to be first so I’m not sure why SharePoint decided to make that the field that identifies the list entry. I do notice that the Quote # column is bolded when I open my SharePoint list – perhaps it is the main/identifying column? Can I change this somehow?

Normally people would be searching for the item using another field called Shipper #. I wish for this value to be the title.
