Custom Property - Pick List or Multi-Select

It would be hugely beneficial to us to have custom properties with a pick list or multi-select option. Currently I am having to use a bunch of different custom properties where I could easily accomplish the same goal with only one if this feature existed.

EDIT: Please see Multi-Select Custom Properties for voting.

Can you expand on that the pick list or multi-select list would be populated with and where it would be useful to you?

Sure thing!

For example I want to be able to specify all of the services we are responsible for managing (we are a service provider) for each node in Orion. Currently to accomplish this I would need a custom property for each service we could manage and have it be a yes/no field. For example the following fields would be necessary: Managed Exchange (Yes/No), Managed IIS (Yes/No), Managed AD (Yes/No), etc, etc, etc.

With the feature I am proposing I would only need one field that was an array containing all of the services we could potentially manage and then I would go through and select all that apply.

Does this make sense?

I hear ya; actually, I just realized the way to narrow down using the left column "ideas" in this case (under show)..go figure. old habits make you blind some times.
