Create New Versions of Picklists
With Product Designer, you can track changes to picklist values. When you need to change a released version of a picklist, create a new version.
After a version of picklist values is released, no changes are allowed to that version. To change the picklist values, create a new version to add or discontinue values. To stop using a picklist, set it as inactive, but don't delete it. Deleting a picklist can affect the use of newer versions by existing assets. But you can delete an unreleased version of a picklist.
- From the Products tab, click Vlocity Picklists.
- Open a picklist, and click New Version.
- Enter a version label for the new version.
-
Click Save.
EPC clones the current version, including General Properties, Effectivity date, and Picklist values. The Lifecycle Status field is set to Draft so that you can make changes.
- In the Picklist Items section, click New Picklist Item, delete a picklist item, or edit a picklist item.
-
For new or changed picklist items, set the following properties, for example, a new download speed of 125 MB.
-
Value — Depends on the data type you selected under General Properties. This can be a date, a number, etc.
-
Code — For example, 125M.
-
Label — For example, 125 MB.
-
Abbreviation — Enter text.
-
- Set the Effectivity dates and click Active to activate the new picklist value.
- Click Done.
-
To release a picklist, click Release.
After a picklist is released, you can't modify the picklist items, though you can change the picklist's description, name, active status, and effectivity dates.
