Value lists
Value lists are predefined lists shown in Docuflair’s forms and input fields. Instead of typing values in by hand, users choose from a list given — cost centres, departments or document categories, for example. That prevents typing errors and keeps the data consistent.
You reach the value lists through the menu navigation under System > Value lists.
