SearchLister module SearchSelectLister_0_1_0 was not given a search or a saved search name to power itself and thus cannot render any data

        </input>
        <input type="dropdown" token="JT_JOB_ID">
            <label>Select Job ID</label>
            <populatingsavedsearch fieldForValue="JT_JOB" fieldForLabel="JT_JOB">cob_job_list</populatingsavedsearch>
        </input>

when you use <populatingSearch> and <populatingSavedSearch>, the tags are case-sensitive and they have to be in camel-case like that, not all lowercase. I think that's your only problem.

The simplified XML doesn't have validation that could tell you that you have an undefined param and you have no populatingSavedSearch param, so it's only telling you about the latter problem.

If I load this search (cob_job_list) its give me list of all available ID and If I use search terms here it'll also fill the combo but problem with only populatingsavedsearch.
