Goal

When trying to set up context sensitive Descriptive Flexfield ("DFF") to work in iProcurement as it does in Core Purchasing, the List Of Values for 'POR: Context value for Requisition distribution descriptive flexfield' does not have the Reference Field as an option to select and instead LOV shows the enabled Context Field Values.

Is there a way to select the Reference Field set up in the Purchasing Requisition DFF definition?

Steps To Reproduce
1. Setup a Descriptive Flexfield definition for the Requisition Distribution with a Global Data Element and Context Sensitive Values

2. Personalize the Account page in iProcurement to show the Descriptive Flexfield

3. Go to System Administrator - Navigate Profile/System
  - Set the profile POR: Context value for Requisition distribution descriptive flexfield.

4. Click on List of Values and the enabled Context Field Values are listed, not the Reference Field
