Needing to have a lookup field filter based on logged in user.

I have an instance where I have 1 list and 1 document library.

List 1 has Inventory tied to a User Information. What this does is allow us
to move Inventory into "Warehouses"... These "Warehouses" are a direct lookup
into the "User Information/Display Name". The list is then is reference by
the below document library.

The Document Library requires that the "Installer" assign List 1 to a
document library field. Right now I have a lookup set to "lookup"
information from List 1. Currently I see "All Items" in the lookup.

Is there anyway that when a user logs in, that the user will only see the
"List 1" items that are assigned to them, instead of "All Items" in the
Document Library?

I have a view setup so that the installer can see "My Warehouse". It works
just fine and only show inventory assigned to them.

Thank You in advance!

Did you ever test [me] filter?
if I understand your propose, you have to create a new view and set users
filed to filter by [me] value.
Is that what you needed?

No, I have the [Me] view setup in the inventory list. I need to only see
that [Me] view on the lookup from the document library, instead of the "All
Items".
