Lookup to User with all the users who are managers of other user

 
Share

I want to create a lookup field to User in the Custom object. This lookup should display the list of users who are Managers of other users.

How this can be achieved.

Thanks in advance.

I guess better approach for this will be make a look up field and put a lookup filter saying his role is manager or make a check box for that user of formula type and mark it then put a look up filter to get only those records

There is a field called ManagerId in User Object standard field one can use that write a small rule or trigger

The closest I can think of if a filtered lookup where you can only lookup managers. Since the manager lookup is a recursive one on User, it would be hard to filter on I magine, unless a manager cannot have a manager.

Perhaps you could leverage Jeff Douglas's code here: http://blog.jeffdouglas.com/2011/02/15/find-my-salesforce-users-by-role-hierarchy/
