Create a codelist
Codelists specify a list of valid values that you can associate with a table column.
-
Click the Navigation icon at the top of any page and then click Library.
-
Select the Codelists tab.
-
Select a project (or whatever study groupings are called in your company) in which to create the codelist.
Tip:
Selecting a grouping is required and can help users find the codelist. But codelists in any grouping can be used in any study.
-
Click the Add or Modify icon. (If you are modifying the codelist, you must first check it out.)
Tip:
Modifying a codelist creates a new version of it. When you assign the codelist to a column, the column uses the current version. Columns that already use the old version will continue to do so unless you explicitly modify the column.
-
If you want to change all columns to the new version, modify the codelist.
-
If you want to be able to assign either version to a column, create a whole new codelist with the modified list of values.
-
-
Codelist Name Enter a name.
-
Description: (Optional) Enter a description such as its values to help users decide if this is the codelist they need.

Click OK.
