Hi Naga,

Create a trigger on this object and clear the Lookup value on Before Insert event. 

Thanks,

Hi Nage,

I agree with above solution from Gaurav and on top of it you can also make use of Workflow Field Update or a Process Builder to set the field value to null to make it even more simpler if you are looking Configuration and not Code




Thank you
