Adding Value Lists

To add a new value list:

  1. In the menu, click Administration > Lists of Values .
  2. Click New List. The New List Of Values dialog box displays.
  3. Type a name for the new value list in the Name field and a description for the value list in the Description field.
  4. From the Grouped by list box, select a parameter by which this list is to be grouped.

    This selection is definite and cannot be edited once you save your new list. Grouping values means that each value in your list must be assigned a value from the list you selected in the Grouped by list box. Not grouping values means that you can define custom values manually.

  5. Click New Value to add a value to the list. The New Value dialog box displays.
  6. Type a Name and Description for the new value.
  7. Select a value from the Grouped by list box, if applicable.
  8. Select the position of the new value within the list of existing values from the Insert after list box, or select <last entry> to add the new value to the end of the list.
  9. Click OK to save the value. The New List Of Values dialog box displays the newly added value.
  10. Add as many additional values as are required to complete the value list.
