Creating and Editing Dropdown List Items
Overview of Dropdown Lists
Dropdowns in Tinubu Surety Solution for Carriers (TSC) can be defined by users. Dropdowns are made up of two parts: the Dropdown List, which is like a named container; and the Dropdown List Items, which are the Items that go inside the container. The Items are the options in the LIST part of the menu. The Dropdown List's name is the label that appears over the list.
Please refer to the Premium Rate Definition Details guide to learn about the use of Dropdown List Items in the creation of Premium Rate Definitions, and the Adding Questions to Question Groups guide for use with questions. Building questions would be the next step.
