{{Warning | Several of the enumeration lists are used by more than one field. Adding a value to an enumeration list will affect '''ALL''' fields that use that same enumeration list. The enumeration list/category ''Yes No Answer'' are used by 86 fields. 42 of the 186 enumeration lists/categories are used by more than one field. }}
<center>
# look up which enumeration list/category is used
# consult the page [[Enumeration categories]] and verify that the category that you are about to update is not listed.
# is it possible to edit slightly the translation of an existing enumeration value instead of adding a value?
As an example the field ''Type of Infrastructure Blocked'' which used the enumeration list/category ''InfrastructureBlock'' will be used.
<ol>
<li>From In the '''Customisation''' menu, select &rarr; '''Data Inventory Manager'''.</li>[[Image:DIM enum.png|600px|center]]

{{Note|Adding a value to an enumeration list will not automatically update existing Data Entry Form Templates that use the enumeration list.
If the enumeration list/category that you would like to add a value to are used by more than one field and the value(s) you would like to add is '''not''' suitable for all affected fields than <br/>then it is recommended to use a '''[[Add Custom Defined Fields | CDF]]''' instead.}}
