Add a new item to a system list

  1. Go to Admin.

  2. From Attendance Data, select System Lists.

  3. Select the system list name that you want to add the item to.

  4. From the end of the list, select Add System List Item.

  5. Enter the Label which will be shown in the dropdown menu.

  6. Enter a Value for the list item. This is added to the database when users select the list item from a dropdown list, and can be different from the label. For example, an item for a Rating list could have 3 – Scope for Change as a descriptive label, but just 3 as its value.

  7. Enter a number in Display Order to specify the position of the item in the system list.

  8. Enabled is selected by default indicating the item will be available from the dropdown list. This can be deselected to remove the item from the menu.

  9. Select Save. Repeat this process for all the items that you want to add to the system list.

    You can add list items quickly (without specifying their properties) by selecting Quick Add Items at the end of the list.
