A single selection list is type of data element (either a list of radio buttons or a drop-down list called a combo box) from which only one value can be selected. In the Data Inventory Manager, you can set how each single selection list displays.
 |
By default, all single selection lists display as radio buttons. |
To set how a single selection list displays:
- From the Customisation menu, select Data Inventory Manager.
- The Data Inventory Manager window displays.
- From the left pane of the Data Inventory Manager window, select the item or data category to which you would like to edit a single selection list attribute.
- From the right pane, click the row associated with the item attribute you would like to edit.
- Click the
button.
- The Custom Options List window displays.
- In the Selection Display field, choose either the Radio Buttons or Combo Box option.
- Click the Done button.
- The single selection list will now display according to your setting each time you add it to a data entry form template.

If you wish to edit how a single selection is used in a Data Entry Form Template, see Change Single Selection Option List. |

After editing a single selection list, you should update data entry form templates that use the list. For more information, see Change an Existing Data Entry Form Template. |
