Sage CRM allows fields to be defined for the interface that are defined from a wide range of different entry types. The entry types in Sage CRM control the field behaviour, the type of data that may be entered and how the field is rendered as HTML in the browser.
For more details about the different Entry Types see the article "Sage CRM EntryTypes used in the COM ASP API".
Among the entry types available for field definition in Sage CRM, there are many that describe different forms of selection lists that may be used in the interface. These types include
- Selection
- User Select
- Team Select
- User Multi-select
- Intelligent Select
- Multi-select
'Search Select Advanced' fields are not discussed here because there is a whole series of articles dedicated to that entry type. See the article "Almost everything you wanted to know about Search Select Advanced Fields (A round up about lookups)".
Below are links to articles that discuss different aspects of defining, controlling and using these different selection lists.
