How to Join fields from 2 indexes

Hello!
I am trying to make a dashboard with fields from 2 indexes using the command "join".
I wrote a search source="WinEventLog:Security" EventCode=4624 AccountName!="*$" | eval user = mvindex(AccountName,1) |dedup user | join type=left user [index=anotherindex employeeID=*] | table _time, user, employeeID

But column employeeID is empty. What did I do wrong?

I added "search" but column "employeeID" is still empty.

And I found a mistake - there is "AccountName*!="$""

source="WinEventLog:Security" EventCode=4624 AccountName!="*$" | eval user = mvindex(AccountName,1) |dedup user | join type=left user [ search index=anotherindex employeeID=* ] | table _time, user, employeeID
