Selective Lists gives the possibility to limit the possible user inputs.

e.g. if you want to let the user choose a car, but do not want to give the user the right to add new car-manufactors, just create a car-selective-list, so that the user is only allowed to choose out of this car-catalogue.

2 parts to create a selective list

To generate a selective list, there are two important parts:

  • SELECTIVEITEM equals to a following item of a selective list
  • SELECTIVELIST is the base selective list
