## Step 1: Choose the field type
1. On the **Choose field's type** screen that opens when you start the Configuration Wizard, choose from the available options.
The Advanced Row Field offers two main configuration options based on your requirements:
| | |
| --- | --- |
| **Readonly fields** | Readonly fields support basic value selection and are ideal for displaying reference data from your database. They have one important constraint: the configuration requires exactly two columns—a primary key and a display value column.
Readonly fields come in three display options:
- **Single Select**: Enables selection of one value from a complete list of available options.
- **Multi Select**: Enables selection of multiple values from the available options.
- **Autocomplete**: Uses autocomplete functionality to filter and display options as users type. |
| **Editable fields** | Editable fields provide the most flexibility and functionality:
- Support for multiple columns (not limited to two).
- Extended configuration options.
- Ability to configure custom scripts.
- Most complex setup, but offers the greatest customization potential. |
2. Click **Next**.

1. On the **Choose the columns** screen, choose the columns you need:
| | |
| --- | --- |
| **For read-only Advanced Row Fields** | Select only two columns: the primary key and the column that holds the values shown by the field. If the original table already has a primary key column, the Advanced Row Field automatically uses it. |
| **For editable Advanced Row Fields** | You can select as many columns as needed. The field layout is designed to display numerous columns, providing flexibility in your choices. |
2. Click **Next** to proceed to the next step.
