Some values are stored in Current RMS as editable lists, so you can customize and add to them. You can also create your own lists that you can use in custom fields.

System default list of values

As standard, Current RMS comes with a number of list of values:

These options allow you to add to the drop-down lists when adding telephone numbers, links, email addresses, and addresses in People & Organizations.

  • Activity Type

Use Activity Type to add new activity types to your system, and activity status to add options to the drop-down when you complete them.

Products & services

  • Service type
    Add new service types to the drop-down when creating a service.

  • Price category
    Set up price categories to add in additional prices to rates.

To edit a list of values, click the blue arrow to the right of the list and choose Edit from the menu.
