Listing of value pairs is also possible, separated by semicolon <value>;<label> :

When entering value pairs, it is always the first value (<value>) which will be saved as key in the data container. The second value (<label>) can be used as notification to the user. Value pairs may also contain numbers, so that a user can choose a text option, but in the background a calculation is carried out.

It is not possible to assign the same value to different labels.

If in the field Possible Values a pair of values with same content was entered, for example 2;2 or yes;yes then one of these values will be deleted from the field display during saving. This value will be saved to the database as both value and label.
