Creating Picklists

A feature of selection criteria is the picklist. Picklists can be defined on selection criteria prompts and provide the person running the report with a list of valid items from the database. For example, if you were going to prompt the user for a PE ID, but you know your users are more familiar with the employee's name (PENAME), you can use a picklist to display the PENAME option.

To add a picklist to a report region, in the Report Item window:

  • Select Prompt from the list of Response Types.
  • Click Next to open the second Report Item window.
  • In the Picklist section, select the Add Picklist Definition button.
  • Select an information category. Click Next.
  • Select a Key and Description. Click Next.
  • Finally, selection criteria, if any, are assigned.
  • Click Finish.
