Can you create a Multiple Choice field to a form?

Hi SNC,

 

Is there a way to add a field which is multiple choice to a standard form (ex: change form)?

The field types OOTB do not offer this. Variables do, but I can't think of a way to add a variable to personalize the form.

 

Anyone done this?

As far as I can guess LIST is exactly what you need. Yes you wil have to create multiple check boxes which is not a viable option.


This is from wiki:


ListReference field that accepts multiple references rather than just one

My problem with List is that I want to be able to selct more that one option, and in List I can select just one I think.

This doesn't look like it works anymore with Fuji.   I made a new dictionary entry on the Incident table, type: List, and named it "Categories" where people can choose more than one category that this ticket falls under.   After manually making a couple choices to choose from, I created a couple records with at least one of the list item (if not more) and then tried to filter based on it and kept getting errors.   It won't try autocompleting when I say Categories contains __________, and when I click the magnifying glass it comes up with a null record not found error thing.


Looking at the record's XML itself looks fine, it has a comma-separated list of all those values but I can't build a filter or run reports or gauges based on it.


List is the easiest way to do this Dont break your head using annotation's and check box's
