List type field

[Serhii2]

Hi!

Guys, my problem: 

I have "List" type field, with 4-5 items, is it possible to make this items like reference ?

Hi,

List field itself is a reference to some table

So it stores the sys_ids

Can you explain your requirement here?

Regards

No you can not, if you will try you will get an error like below.

"Type change not allowed. Invalid type conversion for field 'list' on table 'Incident'. Cannot convert from 'List' to 'Reference'."

Note: list type field can contains multiple value but in reference field it will contain only one value. 

why do you want to change it ?
