Hi all,

I'm using Currency field with option of Static lookup to change values .  
But I'm not able to change values for empty field values.  
Below screenshot.

Empty fields are not showing unknown. Still they are empty.

Any turnaround for empty fields using static lookup?

This looks like a bug to me, thanks for reaching out.  
Could you open an issue here [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?assignees=&labels=bug&template=Bug\_report.md](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?assignees=&labels=bug&template=Bug_report.md) ?

If that fits your use case, you might be able to work around it by setting the value for an unknown key right below the list instead:
