Managing Items in a Pick List

You can edit a pick list by adding a new item, editing an existing item, or deleting an item from the pick list.

If you add a custom item to the Opportunity Status pick list and a user sets the opportunity status to that item, the Opportunity Detail view Snapshot behaves as if the opportunity status is set to "Open".

To manage

Open the Pick List Detail view.
On the Items tab, do one of the following:

Click Add to add a new item.
Click the Edit link for the item you want to change.
Click the Delete link for the item you want to remove.

If you use other software applications that share database information with Sage SalesLogix, you must delete the same pick list items in both applications.

In the Add/Edit Item dialog box:

In the Text box, type the text you want to appear in the pick list.
(Optional) In the Code box, type a code for the item.

If you use other software applications that share database information with Sage SalesLogix, you must use the same pick list codes in both applications.

In the Order box, specify the order the item should appear in the list. Tell me more...

For example, if you type 0, the item appears as the first item in the list. If you have multiple items with the same order number, they are grouped by that number and the entire group appears in the list before the next highest order number. Note that if the Sorted alphabetically attribute is selected, Order values are ignored.

Select the Is default item check box to set the item as the default list item.
Click Save and New to continue adding items, or click OK when you are finished.

Click Save.
