Dynamic Pick List Dialog Box

Workflow Manager 6.0

When a data element defined with a data type of Dynamic Pick List is rendered (either during the submission of a request or as part of a subsequent workflow step), this dialog box opens when a user clicks the Click to Select link next to the data element.

The Dynamic Pick List dialog box contains a searchable and sortable list of the data in an XML data source file that was specified when the data element was defined. An XML data source file can have multiple columns, but only one column value is passed to Workflow Manager when an item is selected. By default, the value in the first column of the XML file is passed to Workflow Manager for each selected item, but a different column can be selected when the data element is defined.

After the user selects one or multiple items in the Dynamic Pick List and clicks OK, the selected values then populate the text area, with entries separated by pipes.

Note: You can use the Search for [TEXT] in [COLUMN NAME] feature to quickly find the list items that you want to select. See Using List Features for more information.
