Can we convert textbox to dropdown in M6 Report to show as either using legal value list or enumerat

[SR_13884196]

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 10.2 and Datecode with CPS M010-CPS01

I have 2 questions.
1. In Windchill, under type and Attributes, we have one IBA attribute --- typeOfChange -- in which it contains the legal value list. I want this list to show as dropdown in M6 Template Report.

Here are the errors that I faced
There is no error message. The report is not showing as dropdown if we have only legal value list. The report is encountered an error message if we add both the legal value list global enumeration. While adding both if we make disable the legal value list without completely removing then using the global enumeration it is showing as dropdown. But if any item has no spaces in between a word for example -- PART WAIVER, then the report is not fetching even though the records exist.

Thank you for your post. 

Your post appears well documented but has not yet received any response. I am replying to raise awareness. Hopefully, another community member will be able to help.

Also, feel free to add any additional information you think might be relevant. It sometimes helps to have screenshots to better understand what you are trying to do.

I think you'd need to use an Enum, not a Legal Value list to get the drop down to appear in the report.

For the issue with spaces, there might be something where the enum's display value is being shown in place, but then the internal value is needed somewhere. Maybe that's an issue in 10.2. We're using 13.0, and it behaves as expected when an attribute has an enum constraint.
