Filtering off a type ahead user object home team id

Hi, I am hoping someone has this working, and I think I am close.

 

We have a typeahead field tied to the user object. When we type in the field, it will reference an existing name within Workfront. The field is used on a task. 

 

We are trying to use the typeahead field in a report filter to get data about tasks where the field is populated with the name, but filter off the home team of the name within the typeahead field. 

 

We have tried:

fieldname:ID:homeTeamID=value of the id

fieldname:ID:homeTeamID_Mod=in

 

We have tried

fieldname:homeTeamID=value of the id

fieldname:homeTeamID_Mod=in

 

None of those worked.

 

Bonus points would be instead of the ID to use $$USER.homeTeamID

Hi there, typeahead fields are definitely a different type of field to work with. I'm not sure if what you're after is possible (don't quote me on that), you may need to create a calculated field that will capture the value of the typeahead and then use that calc field in your report filter. See related Idea & Post.
