Use field values to define items in a selection list presented to users or a set of values for the Table features on the General tab of the Property form, and to support localization by overriding an English word or phrase with an equivalent term in another language.

Many field values restrict values of a property to one of a fixed list of choices, but the list of choices — recorded as rules rather than in code or data — may evolve with different versions of an application.

Other field values support localization of words, phrases, and sentences that appear on portal displays, reports, and user forms.

Use the Application Explorer to access field values that apply to the work types in your application. Use the Records Explorer to list all field values available to you.
