This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The issue here is that the user wanted to use the post reference field to relate posts of the same CPT
Solution:
Unfortunately you are not able to have a post reference field of a Post of the same custom post type.
What I recommend that you do is to allow the Hierarchical parent/child setup in the CPT by going to Toolset->Settings scroll to options and check hierarchical.
This way you can add a parent post of the same post type as a "reference"
Alternatively the customer was able to resolve the issue with this plugin below.

Hi There!
I´m trying to show posts related using this field (post reference). I´ve read all the documentation about it here but isn´t working: https://toolset.com/documentation/post-relationships/how-to-display-related-posts-with-toolset/using-post-reference-fields-to-display-information-from-a-related-post/
Thing is that I trying to create a custom field in order to connect a custom post type called "Realizaciones" with another custom post types (one or more "Realizaciones").
Thing is I can´t to choose the custom post type in a dropdown list (see the image below)
Is it possible to do it?
If not, How could I connect custom post types what belongs at the same custom post type?
