Drop-Down List (Single)

A drop-down list from which a user can select only one item.

Before you can select this field type, the drop-down list that is linked to this field has to have been added to the standard TMS drop-down table (refer to Drop Down Lists for more information on adding drop-down lists).

When the field type is a drop-down list, the list that displays is selected in the Drop-List drop-down list.

Items in the list are displayed in the order in which they were added and are not in alphabetical order.

NOTE: A drop-down list should not be deleted or changed once it is used without careful consideration. Certain drop-down lists are system-controlled and so their name or the ability to delete them is disabled.
 
TIP: Defining the Default Selection
If you would like to define a default selection, simply make the desired default item the first item in the drop-down list.
