The Limit List feature allows users to limit the options available in a pick list on a specific Form. This list is limited to certain items.
Within Lucity, there are two types of pick lists: the standard pick list, which is based on a set list of options; and the asset-selection pick list, which requires the user to first select a Module from which to display Assets.
The process of creating Limit Lists for each type of pick list differs slightly:
Add a field that can be limited to the Form. This includes Problem, Category, Affected Asset, etc.
In the Properties grid, click on the LimitList property and select True. The Limit List button is now enabled.
Click on the Limit List button to access the Limit List Form. The Limit List Collection grid displays the code and description for each item available.
Highlight one or more selections in the left-hand grid and add them to the right-hand grid. The items in the Limit List will be the only ones accessible to users of the Web Form.
Asset selection pick-lists only appear on the Work Order Assets form. Therefore, this type of Limit List is useful to create a Form in which only one type of Asset can be selected.
Add the Asset Rec # field to the Form.
In the Properties grid, click in the Default Type property and choose the Module from which users will be able to select Assets.
Then, click on the LimitAsset property and select True. The Limit List button is enabled.
Click on the Limit List button to access the Limit List form. The Limit List Collection grid displays the code for each Asset in the selected Module.
Highlight one or more selections from the left-hand grid and add them to the right-hand grid. The items added to the Limit List will be the only ones accessible to users of the Web Form.
