Hi,

You'd access your field in dictionary, then scroll to the bottom, same as you see in your screenshots. Then...add the choices there.

Example showing when starting to make new field:

Currently, this has no choices:

Change dictionary tab for "Choice list specification to a selection, such as":

Now, add choices in dictionary, scroll down to related list:

And now it looks like this on the form:

Hi Allen,

By looking at the script, can you please tell me which table inputs are getting added to?

(function executeStep(inputs, outputs, stepResult, timeout) {
    //set variables for all change inputs
    var changeID = inputs.u_record.toString(); 
    var bis_svc = inputs.u_ci_business_service;
    var complex = inputs.u_complexity_of_change;
    var dificult = inputs.u_difficult_to_revert;
    var redundancy = inputs.u_redundancy_plan;
    var verify = inputs.u_verification_change;

    var justCreatedGR = new GlideRecord('change_request');
    if (justCreatedGR.get(changeID)) {//get change record to pull fields o who will take they survey.
        //create assessment
        var metricType = '2e3ab7f1d7033200532c24837e61034b'; //sys_id of the metric type you can find in change_risk_asmt table
        var assessmentDetails = new ChangeRiskAsmtSNC()._createAsmt(metricType, justCreatedGR.sys_id, justCreatedGR.assigned_to);
        var asmtInstanceSysId = assessmentDetails; //survey sys_id

        //set response in assessment questions
        var setResponse = new GlideRecord('asmt_assessment_instance_question');
        setResponse.addQuery('instance', asmtInstanceSysId);
        setResponse.query();

        while (setResponse.next()) { //set assessment answers
            if (setResponse.metric.name == 'Complexity of change') {
                setResponse.value = complex;
            } else if (setResponse.metric.name == 'Difficult to revert') {
                setResponse.value = dificult;
            } else if (setResponse.metric.name == 'Verification of change') {
                setResponse.value = verify;
            } else if (setResponse.metric.name == 'Affect critical CI or Business Service') {
                setResponse.value = bis_svc;
            } else {
                setResponse.value = redundancy;
            }
            setResponse.update();
        }

        //set assessment to complete and link to task id
        var justUpdatedInst = new GlideRecord('asmt_assessment_instance');
        if (justUpdatedInst.get(asmtInstanceSysId)) {
            justUpdatedInst.state = "complete";
            justUpdatedInst.task_id = changeID;
            justUpdatedInst.update();
        }

        //calculate assessment result and update change record with calculated risk 
        var calculatedRisk = new global.RiskCalculator(justCreatedGR).evaluateRiskImpact();
        if (calculatedRisk.riskEvaluation.risk.value == 4 || calculatedRisk.riskEvaluation.risk.value == 3 || 
			calculatedRisk.riskEvaluation.risk.value == 2) {//Check is asessment returned one of the expected values
            stepResult.setOutputMessage("calculatedRisk.risk " + calculatedRisk.riskEvaluation.risk.value);
            justCreatedGR.risk = calculatedRisk.riskEvaluation.risk.value;
            justCreatedGR.update();	
        }
        stepResult.setSuccess();//successful test
		return;
    } else {
        stepResult.setOutputMessage("Failed to calculate risk");
		stepResult.setFailed(); // fail the step
    }
}(inputs, outputs, stepResult, timeout));
