Create a new typelist definition

Procedure

  1. In the Project tools window, navigate to configuration > config > Extensions > Typelist.
  2. Right-click on Typelist, and then click New > Typelist.
  3. Enter the typelist name in the New Typelist dialog. PolicyCenter uses this name to uniquely identify this typelist in the data model.
  4. Enter a description. Use the Description field to create a longer text description to identify how PolicyCenter uses this typelist. This text appears in places like the Data Dictionary.
  5. Verify that the (Boolean) Final field is set to false. Studio automatically sets this field to false for any typelist that you create. You have no control over this setting. This field has the following meanings:

    True

    You cannot add or delete typecodes from the typelist. You can only override certain attribute fields.

    False

    You can modify or delete typecodes from this typelist, except for typecodes designated as internal, which you cannot delete. (You cannot remove internal typecodes, but you can modify their name, description, and other fields.)
