  2. Click on the dictionary’s Actions menu icon and select “Edit Dictionary Values.” The Dictionary Values screen appears.
  3. Perform the following actions as needed, selecting Close when finished.

To add a new value:

  • Click Add New Value.
  • On the Add Dictionary Value screen, enter the new value in the Value field.
  • If you want to delay availability of the value, select “No” in the Is Active field.
  • Click Create. The value is added to the list on the Dictionary Values screen.

To deactivate an existing value:

  • Click Edit next to the value.
  • On the Edit Dictionary Value screen, select “No” in the Is Active field.
  • Click Save.
