Add import functionality for dropdown values

I think it would be highly appreciated if there was an import functionality for updating and adding values to a dropdown field. Sometimes there's many values that should be added or updated and this takes a lot of time to do as it is now. It would be great to have the opportunity to upload a file with two columns (item name and display label).

  • IMHO, dropdowns purpose is rather a segmentation that shouldn't change so frequently - changing dropdowns may lead to issues with  records that employ removed dropdown values and also may lead to inconsistent reporting from a historical perspective
    for frequently changing data we prefer to employ dictionaries in a form of custom modules, that also includes dictionary value status (as active or inactive)
    modules do provide data import
