Values

Manage values by adding, deleting, or reordering them. Click within each row to modify existing values.

To manually reorder selections in the list, use the Move up and Move down controls or click the Value column headings and then verify that "User defined" is selected in the End-user display order list. You can also choose one of the following display orders:

For fields in primary tables, you can include or exclude a value by selecting the Enabled check box, or you can select Enable all or Disable all from the More list to include or exclude all values.

To manage a large number of selections, use the Import and Export options in the More list. For details, refer to Importing Selection Field Values.

To delete a value, select the value and click Delete. In the dialog box that appears, if you want to delete the value even if it is in use, uncheck the Prevent the deletion if the value is in use option. All references to the value are deleted as well.

If you delete this field and later restore it, the values you specify are also restored. For more information, see Deleting and Restoring Fields.

Tip: You can use shortcut keys to edit and navigate values. For more information, see Selection Field Shortcut Keys.
