Is it possible to create several enumeration fields within one table that end users can populate without having to make a completely separate table for each field? i.e.,

A company in "Branch A" only accepts certain equipment....in this case...it's computers......so they will build their lists using fields like

Service Type: Express, Standard, Overnight
System Make = Toshiba, Compaq, Dell, etc...
System Type = Laptop, desktop, netbook, etc...
Color = Black, White, etc...

Let's say another branch, B, doesn't work on computers...but they fix phones and they want their own list of equipment fields to use phone stuff and not reflect the computer list.


I would like to have have one back end page layout where each branch can have their own lists and alter them according to their own needs. I just can't seem to create a dynamic enumeration list that an end user can edit(add or remove listed items) without making a separate table and then linking it with a FK.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  I still don't believe he can really be human to do all this ! From all of the forums that I've ever participated in this is certainly the one that most encapsulates the feeling of being truly open source where everyone's opinions and contributions can and will shape the development of the service! It's truly awesome! Hope you enjoy cooking and look forward to reading and contributing to any of the editorial work that you proposed too!! Thanks
