Define List Display Options (Text Prompts Only)

For text Prompts in which List Values from a Table and Field is selected in the Value List drop-down menu, define how to display the list of values.

Option	Description
Auto	Select this option in the drop-down menu to have the system choose the best option for displaying the list of values. The options are an Ellipses button and a drop-down button. The Ellipses button is most often displayed in the Prompt window. This means that the system has found the Business Object (selected from the Table drop-down menu). The Ellipses button opens a window that displays a list of values in a grid. The values are grouped by the Business Object field (selected from the Field drop-down menu) and then by the Fields in the Business Object's default Grid. See About Grids. The drop-down button is displayed if the Business Object definition can be cached or if the Business Object field (selected from the Field drop-down menu) has the TreatAsCacheableForPrompt general attribute (defined on the Advanced Properties page of the Field Properties window). The drop-down button displays the list of cached values for the Business Object field. For large text fields, select the Include Large Text Fields in Cache check box on the Advanced Properties page. Caching is required to quickly lookup the value for prompts. See Define Advanced Properties for a Business Object.
Display a Simple Text Box	Select this option to display the Prompt window where Users can type values into a text field.
Display List of Values in a Combo	Select this option to display the Prompt window where Users can type values into a text field, or select from a list of values in a drop-down. The drop-down shows values from the selected Business Object field (in the Field drop-down).
Show Open Button	Select the check box to show an Ellipses button that Users can click in the Prompt window to open a separate Quick Selector window, which displays the list of values as a grid.
Display List of Values in a Grid	Select this option to have the list of values displayed in a grid grouped by the selected Business Object field (from the Field drop-down menu), and then by the fields in the Business Object's default Grid. If you select this option, the Prompt bypasses the Prompt window and immediately navigates the User to the grid, where they can select a value from the list. The default Grid for a Business Object is configured using the Grid Editor in CSM Administrator. The ability to configure the Grid depends on the Grid's grouping properties. See Grid Editor.
Display List of Values in a Simple List	Select this option to display a list of values in a list that only shows values from the selected Business Object field. If you select this option, the Prompt bypasses the Prompt window and immediately navigates the User to the list of values.
