Symptoms

A flexfield is defined to use a custom screenset for the lookup/finder screen and when the screenset is engaged as a regular screen(via a custom screenset where the flexfield is engaged to lookup a value) - it works without issue however if this same screenset is used inside an Enhanced Workbench Layout - the copied/seeded screen pops up when searching for values to populate in this flexfield.

Steps to Replicate the Issue

1. Setup a flexfield on a specific table such as GTM_TRANSACTION
2. Setup a custom screenset that has this flexfield on it
3. Setup a custom screenset that will be used to lookup the value to input on the flexfield
4. Alter the flexfield setup to use the custom screenset - from step 3 that will be used to lookup the input value
5. Setup an enhanced workbench layout that uses the custom screenset from step 2 
6. Query records in the new workbench layout
7. Doubleclick on the flexfield that shows on the workbench layout 
8. The search/list screen opens up - it is not the custom screenset setup in step 3 and tied to the flexfield - it is the seeded screen that was copied
