Hi Krishna,

You can only select one value in a reference field. To select multiple values go with list collector variable type for a catalog item OR List type field for normal forms.

Possible options would be

  • List field (cons - hard to report on)
  • Related List & Reference field (one to many)
  • Relationship (Many to Many)
