infopath 2010 not able to filter

Question

I have an SharePoint list in which I am using the Infopath form and over there I have a column called business lead. and I have more than one business lead for the project. The issue I am facing is I am unable to filter that column. I get a message "

"Cannot show the value of the filter. The field may not be filterable or the number of items returned exceeds the list view threshold enforced by administrator"

Is it because I am using InfoPath?

Since on other list or libraries I am able to do only on this I am unable to do.

Please advise.

Answer 1

The issue was fixed. On the List settings. open that column and Under "Allow selection of" Select people only. Once that is done it worked. But later when i selected People and Groups also it started working. Not sure the reason. But happy that it started working. The filter starts working. let me know if that helps.
