When the list of permissible value is long, and the user needs to display only a few values in a particular dropdown below is an option to do so.
Example 1: Visit site dropdown to show only a few sites and not all the sites from the instance. Add values in options like below.
{ "name": "visit.site", "caption": "Site", "type": "dropdown", "multiple": false, "optional": false, "listSource": { "options": [ "Test Ankita v8.1", "Training Site Ankita", "Testing v8.1" ] }, "showIf": { "op": "AND", "rules": [ { "field": "visit.status", "op": "!=", "value": "'Missed Collection'" } ] } }
Screenshot: After configuring in the JSON workflow, the 'Site' drop-down shows only selected sites.
Example 2: List only 2 values for gender
{ "name": "cpr.participant.gender", "caption": "Gender", "type": "pvs", "attr": "gender", "optional": true, "defaultValue": "Female Gender", "options": [ {"value": "Male Gender", "conceptCode": "M"}, {"value": "Female Gender", "conceptCode": "F"} ] }
Screenshot: After configuring the JSON workflow, the 'Gender' drop-down shows only 2 genders, "Male" and "Female."
Example 3: List only 'Whole Blood' value under 'Fluid' and 'Fixed Tissue Block' under Tissue. The other class and type values will not be displayed.
{ "name": "specimen.type", "caption": "Type", "type": "specimen-type", "specimen": "specimen", "optional": false, "defaultValue": "Whole Blood", "options": [ { "specimenClass": "Fluid", "type": "Whole Blood" }, { "specimenClass": "Tissue", "type": "Fixed Tissue Block" } ] }

Subset user dropdown
It is possible to configure a user list with a few selected the user. This feature helps users to speed up the data entry. If there are only 4-5 users to select from, users don't have to search every time from the list of all users.
Example: The user drop-down field 'Biobank Technician' only has 4-5 users to select. Instead of searching from the list of all the users, the user can create the subset of the users that belongs to the biobank technician.
{ "name": "specimen.extensionDetail.attrsMap.FC15", "caption": "Biobank Technician", "type": "user", "selectProp": "id", "listSource": { "options": [ { "id": 12, "firstName": "Cora", "lastName": "Mariano" }, { "id": 13, "firstName": "Emily", "lastName": "Lin" }, { "id": 382, "firstName": "Nurul", "lastName": "Alhamid" }, { "id": 166, "firstName": "Enmily", "lastName": "Hernandez" }, { "id": 248, "firstName": "Jessica", "lastName": "Kenney" }, { "id": 418, "firstName": "Priscilla", "lastName": "McNeil" } ] } },
Screenshot: After configuring the user subset in the JSON workflow, the 'Biobank Technician' user drop-down shows only listed users.
