Mapping Picklist Values to Picklist Value Groups

For many record types, you can map the values in the picklist fields to one or more picklist value groups. Picklist value groups limit the values that are available for users to select in picklist fields. Each picklist value group can control one or more picklist fields on one or more record types. For more information about picklist value groups, see About Picklist Value Groups.

When mapping the values in a picklist field to the picklist value groups, you can do the following:

• Map some, none, or all of the values to a given picklist value group.
• Map each value to one or more picklist value groups, or to no picklist value group.

1. In the upper-right corner of any page, click the Admin global link.
2. In the Application Customization section, click the Application Customization link.

   1. In the Picklist Value Group section of the page, select a picklist value group.
   2. Use the arrows to move the values that you want to map to the selected picklist value group from the Picklist Available Values list to the Values Related to Selected PVG list.
