Specification Lists

Specification lists are created by you and for which you can define custom values. Specification lists are located at the bottom of the Standard Lists tab. Specification lists can be associated with Specifications and User Defined Fields. The folder tree is used to view, add, delete, rename, and make values inactive. Once it is made inactive, a list value can no longer be selected to use in records (it is hidden in the dropdown list). Making a list value inactive has no effect on records that have already used the list value.
