New entries for drop-downs can be added by typing directly into the drop-down when adding or updating a record. You will be prompted to add the new entry when you move off the drop-down. Some drop-downs cannot be added to, such as the Sex drop-down on the Pet tab of the Customers and Pets form. Also some drop-downs require additional data, such as the Pet Breed drop-down. These must be added using the Data Lists form. Follow these steps to add a new data list entry in the Data Lists form:
- Open the Data Lists form if it is not already open.
- Select the list type required in the “List Type” data list.
- Click the New button in the PetLinx ribbon.
- Enter all required information.
- Click the Save button in the PetLinx ribbon.
