00:00:03,940 --> 00:00:05,250
[Autogenerated] hi And this lesson, we're

2
00:00:05,250 --> 00:00:08,420
gonna show you how to have a choice column

3
00:00:08,420 --> 00:00:11,500
to a library. I also want to add that this

4
00:00:11,500 --> 00:00:14,120
process would be the same in a SharePoint

5
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:19,740
list. We're gonna go to our resume library

6
00:00:19,740 --> 00:00:21,480
and the resume library, like the name

7
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:24,500
suggests, contains resumes. And these

8
00:00:24,500 --> 00:00:27,040
resumes have come in from outside the

9
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,240
organization, and we want to review them

10
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,270
and decide which departments to send them

11
00:00:32,270 --> 00:00:34,870
to. So we're going to add a column that

12
00:00:34,870 --> 00:00:37,740
will tell us where these need to go to

13
00:00:37,740 --> 00:00:39,220
which departments these would be

14
00:00:39,220 --> 00:00:40,890
appropriate for. So we're gonna click on

15
00:00:40,890 --> 00:00:43,840
the ad column button and you see that we

16
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,190
have the option for choice. Now, I don't

17
00:00:46,190 --> 00:00:50,100
want to do this because sometimes when you

18
00:00:50,100 --> 00:00:52,870
choose one of these options in here, you

19
00:00:52,870 --> 00:00:55,380
don't always get all of the options that

20
00:00:55,380 --> 00:00:57,640
are available to you or all of the

21
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:02,310
information. So what I like to do instead

22
00:01:02,310 --> 00:01:06,920
is come down here to the more button click

23
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:08,310
there, and it brings me here to the

24
00:01:08,310 --> 00:01:12,000
settings create column page. Now, I can

25
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,070
also go ahead and get there another way.

26
00:01:14,070 --> 00:01:18,700
I'm going to go back to my resume library.

27
00:01:18,700 --> 00:01:20,100
I can go up here to the top, to the

28
00:01:20,100 --> 00:01:22,830
settings gear. And when I click on

29
00:01:22,830 --> 00:01:27,510
settings, I didn't go to library settings

30
00:01:27,510 --> 00:01:29,260
and then here in library settings, I can

31
00:01:29,260 --> 00:01:32,760
scroll all the way down and choose Create

32
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,690
column, and it brings me to the same

33
00:01:35,690 --> 00:01:38,540
place. Now the first thing you want to do

34
00:01:38,540 --> 00:01:41,320
is select the type of column that you want

35
00:01:41,320 --> 00:01:44,480
to create. Because once you do that and we

36
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:48,300
want where is a choice? The page is going

37
00:01:48,300 --> 00:01:52,200
to refresh so that you get all of the

38
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,470
appropriate options for that type of

39
00:01:54,470 --> 00:01:57,360
column and you see those here? If you put

40
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,760
in the column name and then choose the

41
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,720
column, you're gonna lose the column name.

42
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,690
So now we're gonna go ahead and add the

43
00:02:06,690 --> 00:02:10,050
column. Name it. All right. We can add a

44
00:02:10,050 --> 00:02:11,600
description if we want, but we're gonna

45
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,850
pass on that. Do we want to require that

46
00:02:13,850 --> 00:02:15,560
this column contains information we're

47
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,130
going to say no. Do we want to enforce and

48
00:02:18,130 --> 00:02:21,750
unique values will say no. We have to type

49
00:02:21,750 --> 00:02:23,550
each of our choices on a separate line.

50
00:02:23,550 --> 00:02:26,970
You see, we have choices 12 and three, but

51
00:02:26,970 --> 00:02:29,240
That's not exactly what we want is that we

52
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,840
have to add in what we want. So we're

53
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:37,100
going to say operations, finance,

54
00:02:37,100 --> 00:02:46,650
marketing. But say sales and I t. How

55
00:02:46,650 --> 00:02:50,940
about that now? The display choices using

56
00:02:50,940 --> 00:02:53,220
what option do we want to use drop down

57
00:02:53,220 --> 00:02:55,210
menu? That's exactly what it says. It's a

58
00:02:55,210 --> 00:02:56,700
little menu, and you can pick which one

59
00:02:56,700 --> 00:02:58,920
you want. Radio _______, Which, if you

60
00:02:58,920 --> 00:03:00,670
don't know what radio _______, That's what

61
00:03:00,670 --> 00:03:02,420
these are here, these little circles.

62
00:03:02,420 --> 00:03:05,070
These are radio _______. Choose what

63
00:03:05,070 --> 00:03:06,890
everyone you want or do you want check

64
00:03:06,890 --> 00:03:09,770
boxes, which will allow for multiple

65
00:03:09,770 --> 00:03:12,400
selections. It's the only one that will

66
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,900
allow for multiple selection. So that is

67
00:03:14,900 --> 00:03:16,530
the one that I want. I'm gonna go ahead

68
00:03:16,530 --> 00:03:19,580
and choose check boxes to allow multiple

69
00:03:19,580 --> 00:03:22,380
selections. Do we want to allow fill and

70
00:03:22,380 --> 00:03:26,540
choices yester? No, I'm going to say yes.

71
00:03:26,540 --> 00:03:28,720
This will allow people to write in

72
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,310
something that's not on the list now. The

73
00:03:32,310 --> 00:03:35,320
default value choices operations. Now I

74
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,300
wanted to be blank, but if you just do

75
00:03:38,300 --> 00:03:40,830
this, it's gonna be operations again,

76
00:03:40,830 --> 00:03:43,030
because that's the original one. What you

77
00:03:43,030 --> 00:03:49,050
have to do is I'm gonna go up here before

78
00:03:49,050 --> 00:03:52,930
operations and enter so that there is a

79
00:03:52,930 --> 00:03:58,710
blank. No, and that will be the default

80
00:03:58,710 --> 00:04:03,010
choice. No choice. All right, so we're

81
00:04:03,010 --> 00:04:08,340
good to go. We're gonna click. Okay, let's

82
00:04:08,340 --> 00:04:12,150
go back to our resume library. And now we

83
00:04:12,150 --> 00:04:14,220
see our department column and you see

84
00:04:14,220 --> 00:04:17,100
there's no choice there. But if we go

85
00:04:17,100 --> 00:04:20,380
ahead, let's select this first document

86
00:04:20,380 --> 00:04:23,380
will click on this show actions, and let's

87
00:04:23,380 --> 00:04:26,390
go to details. Now, when we do this, the

88
00:04:26,390 --> 00:04:28,300
information panel opens up over here on

89
00:04:28,300 --> 00:04:30,740
the right, and you see, we have a preview

90
00:04:30,740 --> 00:04:32,810
of the document. We don't get that in a

91
00:04:32,810 --> 00:04:36,650
list because there are documents. It's

92
00:04:36,650 --> 00:04:39,010
just list items. But if we come down here

93
00:04:39,010 --> 00:04:41,390
and scroll down, we see all of our

94
00:04:41,390 --> 00:04:43,540
properties. And when we come down to

95
00:04:43,540 --> 00:04:46,870
department, it says select options because

96
00:04:46,870 --> 00:04:49,830
we had that blank line. If I didn't, it

97
00:04:49,830 --> 00:04:52,490
would say operations. Well, I click in

98
00:04:52,490 --> 00:04:55,060
their in their are my choices. This my

99
00:04:55,060 --> 00:04:57,560
check boxes. So let's go ahead. Let's say

100
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,120
that this one might be good for

101
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,790
operations, and if we want to add another

102
00:05:03,790 --> 00:05:06,950
choice, we just click in here again. And

103
00:05:06,950 --> 00:05:12,840
let's say operations and maybe finance.

104
00:05:12,840 --> 00:05:14,090
Well, go ahead. We'll close the

105
00:05:14,090 --> 00:05:17,640
information panel. You'll see that we can

106
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,980
click there and there's our choices,

107
00:05:19,980 --> 00:05:23,520
operations and finance. Now let's go here

108
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,870
and let's select this 11 check that will

109
00:05:26,870 --> 00:05:29,490
open up the information panel again.

110
00:05:29,490 --> 00:05:32,040
There's a preview. And if we come down

111
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,230
department, let's say that we want to add

112
00:05:34,230 --> 00:05:37,070
our own choice. Well, lookit. Here we have

113
00:05:37,070 --> 00:05:39,610
our insertion tool here and ah, blank

114
00:05:39,610 --> 00:05:42,580
road. That's where we can enter in our

115
00:05:42,580 --> 00:05:44,820
choice that we want to enter in manually.

116
00:05:44,820 --> 00:05:48,000
So let's go ahead. And let's say that this

117
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,870
is somebody who could be in the

118
00:05:52,870 --> 00:05:56,010
development department and I click away.

119
00:05:56,010 --> 00:05:59,110
See that department development? Close

120
00:05:59,110 --> 00:06:03,880
that up, and there it is. So you can add

121
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,690
your own choices manually, select multiple

122
00:06:06,690 --> 00:06:09,690
choices or just select a single choice.

123
00:06:09,690 --> 00:06:11,370
Let's go ahead and let's just do that for

124
00:06:11,370 --> 00:06:17,460
this one. Let's just say this one is good

125
00:06:17,460 --> 00:06:22,500
for I T. And there you have it. So now you

126
00:06:22,500 --> 00:06:25,090
know how to add a choice column to

127
00:06:25,090 --> 00:06:35,000
library. Thanks for listening, and I'll see you next time
