AI generated property description:

The ServiceNow property `glide.request_manager.cancel_reference_completer` is designed to optimize the performance of Reference Completers on forms. According to the documentation, each time a user types and pauses in a Reference Completer field, an AJAX request is sent to the server to fetch matching records. When this property is set to true, the request manager will cancel any previous AJAX requests for the same form if a new one is initiated. This helps in reducing unnecessary server load and improves the responsiveness of the form by ensuring that only the most recent request is processed. This property is particularly useful in scenarios where users type quickly and multiple AJAX requests could otherwise overwhelm the server.
