Doubt with Dropdown(QuickList)

Post by DevGiu » 2016-07-28 11:38

It's possible to define in some way, the value to show, and the value to save on database? Or I have to move this values to a table to do this?

QuickList saves the value displayed. If you want to store one value but display another, you need a lookup table.

I agree, it would be an interesting extension of quicklists to support value assignments.

Instead of:

itemA;;itemB;;itemC

we might have something like;

itemA=1;;itemB=2;;itemC=3
