Can a custom field be set up to use a list of values, but also allow a free form text input if no acceptable value is found in the list?

Hi @mdeanton 

If you use a reference then you can only choose the existing values. 

In your case you can create an enmeration with your own values.

In our case we want a custom field that can either be selected from a list of suppliers or free form if it’s a supplier that is not in the list.

Yes, but if you use a list of value you can’t enter a free text. You can only choose a value from the list.
