Combo Boxes A.K.A. "dropdown" fields | Top Previous Next

These fields allow searching for or saving a record with a single predetermined value. In the search mode however, you can select multiple values as constraints by selecting OR value at the end of any dropdown field values. When OR is selected – a new window will open with the same choices available in the combo-box, but in this window you can make multiple selections at the same time. For example – you need to search for Tickets that are in “Pending” and “Assigned” statuses: in this case you will use the OR Search in the Status field, select “Pending” and “Assigned” check-boxes, click and then use the Search button in the Form. You can also invert your values selection by using the corresponding Invert button. This is useful when you need to select all values except one, in this case you would select that one value to be excluded and click inverse button. In addition, you can use OR… mode for the multi-select option or NULL mode when the system will search for blank values only.
