Hannah James User Posts: 3 Joined: 02/04/2015	#1 02/04/2015 17:11:33 I want to create some custom fields which have drop-down lists, from which users are able to select multiple items. I have found how to create the custom fields but cannot see how to generate the drop-down lists and how to link them to the custom field. I would be most grateful for any help.

Hannah James User Posts: 3 Joined: 02/04/2015	#3 02/04/2015 17:22:03 Thanks, Yana. Since we currently search by what is going into these lists, it is critical that all entries are identical. Is there no way of having drop-down lists to sel ect fr om? Hannah Edited: Hannah James - 02/04/2015 17:22:24

Hope this makes sence. Yana.

Once the contacts have been created, I then want to be able to search by the contents of the drop-down list (i.e. select all contacts who grow grass).

Ok, the list's fields can be modified (added) in CRM>Settings>Custom fields only (not in the new lead creation form)

E.g. you can create such list for the new lead form:

so users will be able to tick multiple values when adding or editing leads

But (!) filter does not support multiple values search, which means you'll be able to search for 1 value at a time:

Hope this helps

Yana.

Charles Hancock User Posts: 48 Joined: 04/13/2016	#12 08/23/2017 22:03:35 Thanks Yana, Why extremely useful, custom fields for lists where more than one choice can be selected cannot be put into the Blue pane (single answer multiple choice can). It is also not possible to edit form from the summary (contact, company etc.) view. Is there a plan to correct this problem? Thanks Charles
