The Enumerated Values section of the page lets you specify display text and color, images, and grouping labels, as well as the return values for user selections:

Specify Display Text, Colors, Images, and Grouping Labels

Click [Manage Values] to specify display text, color, images, and grouping labels.

  • Specify images
To specify images, first upload them to the platform as Documents. This example shows records that were created after selecting such images from a picklist:
Select Use Label for Grouping to use labels for grouping, instead of making them selections, click .
This option is useful when a picklist is long, and can be organized into groups.
To be useful, the "Sort Alphabetically" box should be unchecked.
Considerations
  • The Use Label for grouping option is only available for Picklists
  • After the Use Label for grouping option is selected, the Sort List Alphabetically option is reset to NO
  • If the Use Label for grouping option is selected, the enumerated values are not available for dependent field associations

Reorder Values

Click [Reorder Values] to change the order in which the values appear:

Note: Reordering can be done only when the Sort List Alphabetically option is unchecked.
