We user the People picker field extensively in our forms, but one of the biggest issues is that it does not always return ALL the suggestions.For example, I am looking for "Andrew JONES", so I type in Andrew....I get Andrew ADAMS, Andrew BROWN, Andrew KENNEDY.....but no Andrew Jones. If I type in Andrew Jones it does return.

Is there any settings or reason why this would be happening?

Hi

Are you having issue with people picker on the Nintex form? Is it behaving the same way in the native OOB form as well?

On the standard OOTB SharePoint list....the people picker is fine...recalls all users as you type....it's only on the Nintex Form that this issue occurs

could you post how many suggested options are you provided with?

nintex limits max number of provided options to 10.

however, from experience, I do not get more then 7-8 options usually. I'm not sure where does this restriction comes from, I just guess it's some SP limitation to respond fast enough.

Was this issue ever been resolved ?

I am experiencing the same issue on SP 2016 form
