In the following example, we will imagine that:

- Additionally, we want to display some information about the Payments so that the user can differentiate between them, and select the appropriate record.
- The list of Payments in the dropdown should be automatically populated, depending on the record that the field appears on.
This example shows a dropdown on a record with two Payments in the Scheduled status.
--Please Select--;@parent.[#(?object=activity;criteria=typename='Payment' and statusname='Scheduled';)~eventid~=Payment on $Scheduled Payment Date$ of $Payment Amount$;#]@
Now that we have a stored list of eventids
