Situation

This example shows you how to use the operator "TIS Board - Selection list for editable data table" in the "TIS Board"

First you need 2 tables one will be the table you want and the other one will be the "drop down menu" itself.

Then we scroll all the way down the "portlet properties"

Click on select:

and we select the data node of our menu table.

Now if we click at any row in our "Boss" column we are able to see the menu. But we are not able to interact with it, because we need to save it first.

To save the portlet click on save and select a folder that you want the portlet to be saved in.

Name you page and save it.
