Manage and Reorder Enumerated Values

Specify Display Text, Colors, Images, and Grouping Labels

The Enumerated Values section of the field-definition page lets you specify display-text, colors, images, and grouping labels, as well as the values returned by user selections:

Note: These options are available only when viewing an enumerated field, not when editing it.

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:

• 

  Fruit and Vegetable are group labels

  Specify grouping labels

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

In the Enumerated Values section of the field-definition page, 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.
