Bulk Upload Custom and Subordinate List Items for Respondent Fields

Respondent Field Custom list dropdown items can be created one at a time using the Respondent Field editor.  When adding many items to a Custom List or Subordinate List, the process can be made faster by adding list items in bulk using a comma-separated list. This saves time and effort when adding large numbers of list items.

Bulk Adding Custom List Items

When adding more many list items to a Custom List or Subordinate List Respondent Field, list items may be added to the "New List Item" text area using a comma-separated list.
