Add datatype list to an assessment metric (question)

[Ruben Kummer]

Hello,

I have a requirement to provide a reference list in a questionnaire, so multiple choice should be able to selected from a reference field. Unfortunately it is not an out of the box choice data type for assessment questions. Is there a way to make it an available choice?

I know there is the option to solve it via the data type "multiple selection", but this is not a suitable solution for me because I will need to reference a rather extensive core_company table and multiple selection on this table blows my questionnaire out of proportion (there are just too many records that would be shown in the questionnaire, filtering is also not a viable option to reduce the number of displayed records).

I tried adding "List" (with value glide_list) to the choices of the dictionary entry for the "data type" field on the assessment metric record but it does not trigger any functionality. In general I also don't understand yet how the functionality of the specific data types is triggered here since they are all just added as a choice. 

Any input is greatly appreciated. 

Thank you!
