Adding values to the Reason For Change domain

If you elect to restrict users to giving only a select set of reasons in the Reason for Change field, you need to add values to the Reason for Change domain.

Before you begin

You do not assign this value list to a database object and attribute. The connection to the database for this value list is already present.

Procedure

  1. Open the Domains application.
  2. Open the CHANGEREASON domain.
  3. Click Edit Detail.
  4. In the ALN Domain window, click New Row.
  5. In the Value field and Description field, enter a value that you want the user to see in the CHANGEREASON value list. For this value list only:
    • These values are not written to the database.
    • The value in the Description field is what users see when they use the list.

    For example, you want users to see a value list containing only Change to Record and Delete Record. In the Value field and Description field, type the following information:

    Value field Description field
    CHANGE Change to record
    DELETE Deleted record
  6. Click OK.
