Display Options for Single Selection Fields

Single Selection fields allow users to select a single value.

The following properties are defined in SBM Composer:

• Default Values — Indicates the pre-selected value for this field.
• Allow Searching — Enables the Value Find feature for the field on submit, transition, and update forms. Users can enter search criteria (an entire word, a few letters, or an asterisk) and then click search icon or press Enter to perform the search. Results appear in a drop-down list, from which users select a value for the field. This option also enables users to search for values in the Rich Editable Grid.
  Tip:   If the field will contain 200 or more selections, this option is recommended for best performance. If you do not allow searching, fields that contain over 250 selection values are automatically set as searchable in the Editable Grid.
• Single Drop-Down List — Allows users to select a value from a drop-down list.
• Default Weight — Indicates the numeric value given to the selections in the field. Weights can be used in Trend reports and in Summation fields when users sum the values contained in the Single Selection field.
• Selections — Lists the selections for the field.
• Status — Indicates the selection's status. "Enabled" allows users to select the value for the field. "Disabled" selections are not available as new values. If a selection is disabled after it has been used as a value by users, it appears as "(Disabled)" when users update items.
