One way to define a field with selectable values is to list the values directly as the list of Choices of a Single Selection field or Multiple Selection field. The Single-Selection allows users to choose only one value from the list, and it can be displayed as a dropdown, list of radio buttons, or formatted buttons. Starting from Connect v4.53, it can also be displayed as a list of large tiles formatted with an Options template. The Multiple Selection allows to choose several values from the list, and it can be displayed as a dropdown or a list of checkboxes.

The example below shows how to create an Investment Objectives field. It will be a Single Selection field, with three possible values that will appear in a dropdown list.

Step 1: Add a Single Selection Field.
