This tool can be found in our PowerClick Essentials, available FREE to the ServiceNow Community.
When you are configuring a drop-down choice list, there are a couple of ways to accomplish the items shown in the list. You can specify each of the items in the Choices Tab in the Dictionary Entry, or you may re-use an exiting base table that already has the list you want to use.
When re-using a base table, the Show Choice List Items tool makes it easy to see what Choice table entries are in the chosen base table. Clicking on the Show Choice List Items (ASI) will open a new tab/window with the Choice table entries for the selected "Choice table" and "Choice field" fields. It will appear when the "Choice" field is NOT "-- None --":
Here is an example of how to use the tool.


Navigate to the choice record. Right click on a label and select Configure Dictionary.
Select your desired settings for the Choice, Choice table and Choice field. Click on the Show Choice List items (ASI) tool, which is located in the Related Links.

A new browser tab/window will be opened, displaying the appropriate Choice table entries for your selection.

You may receive this error when clicking on the Show Choice List items (ASI) tool. Change your view to Advanced to ensure proper functionality.
