I have created the free text fields on the location record. One of them is accessable from an iteam search via the inventory location table, and the other is not. What can cause this? I can access both with a formula, but I cant use formulas because of limitations in an integration

Are they both custom fields you created? Does one field not have "store value" checked? (this prevents it from being accessible via search). Are you sure you're looking for the correct name? Sometimes it shows as the original field name and not the current label if you've renamed it.

They are identical. It took 48 hours and then I was suddenly able to reach the other one too
