The field above:* is a [[Custom Field Type: Select One – Combo Box|Select One - Combo Box]] custom field;* has a field name of ''Payment List'';* has a field [[caption]] of ''List of Payments that can be assigned to the report''; and* has the following in the ''Values'' section of its field options:<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">--Please Select--;@parent.[#(?object=activity;criteria=typename='Payment' and statusname='Scheduled';)~eventid~=Payment on $Scheduled Payment Date$ of $Payment Amount$;#]@</pre>
Now that we have a stored list of ''eventid''s, we can refer to this field's [[stored value]] to perform operations on the selected records. For example, a [[Workflow Task Type: Trigger Workflow|workflows can be triggered against these records]].
Additional examples of the objects and criteria that can be selected are available on the [[List Syntax]] page.
