Is it possible to add a new Source Type

Post by dewilkinson »

I can see how to edit a Source Type, but not how to create a new Source Type, is this possible? I have tried searching for this but the forum search engine ignores the word Source and doesn't seem to allow phrases.

Just enter it into a new Source record.

It is just like creating a new Address or any of the other Tools > Work with Data lists.
They are not really lists, but simply a summary of the values used.

As simple as that, and I was thinking there should be an Add New button, silly me!

Many thanks Mike for the prompt help.
