Beschreibung

Starting with the Spring '18 release, Salesforce gave administrators control over the creation of List type Custom Settings. The "Manage List Custom Settings Type" option in Schema Settings is disabled by default, which causes the "List" option to appear greyed out in the Setting Type field when creating a new Custom Setting. Enabling this setting allows the creation of application-level data definitions using List Custom Setting types.
