General Description

Displays a list of User Groups in a combo box. The user can select a single value.


Field Options

  • Display Order: The order (relative to other fields) in which this field is displayed
  • Tab Name: Displays the field under a given tab
  • Field Name: The name of the field, used internally to reference the user's input
  • Caption: The leading question or prologue before the field


Field Formatting Options

Role - Field Permissions

These fields allow you to control by Role who is allowed to view and/or modify the field.

Status - Field Permissions

These fields allow you to control by the Status of the record whether or not the field can be viewed and/or modified.

Notes

Allow Empty

Because the values in a Combo Box Custom Field are restricted to the semi-colon delimited list in the Values field, the Allow Empty field has a slightly different behaviour than usual. It controls whether or not the record can be saved with the default value (which is the first value listed in the Values section):

  • If Allow Empty is checked, the record can be saved with the default value.
  • If Allow Empty is not checked, the record cannot be saved with the default value. In this way you can force the user to select a value different from the default value.
