Question 396

An administrator is implementing an exception to an external dynamic list by adding an entry to the list manually. The administrator wants to save the changes, but the OK button is grayed out.

What are two possible reasons the OK button is grayed out? (Choose two.)

    Correct Answer: A, D

    Two possible reasons the OK button is grayed out when an administrator tries to manually add an entry to an external dynamic list are: the entry matches a list entry, and the entry is duplicated. Both scenarios involve duplication which the system likely checks to prevent, thus disabling the OK button to avoid redundant or conflicting entries.

Should be A and D.

A & D - A. The entry matches a list entry1 D. The entry is duplicated1 The entry matches a list entry: If the entry that the administrator is trying to add already exists in the list, the system may prevent the addition of duplicate entries, causing the OK button to be grayed out1. The entry is duplicated: Similar to the above, if the entry is a duplicate of an existing entry in the list, the OK button may be grayed out1.

JEETKOptions: AD

A. The entry matches a list entry: If the entry you are trying to add already exists in the list, it could cause the OK button to be grayed out. Duplicate entries are not allowed in an EDL, and this duplication would prevent saving the changes. D. The entry is duplicated: This is similar to the above reason but more explicitly states that duplication within the list is the issue. Duplicate entries can prevent the list from being saved correctly, thus causing the OK button to be inactive.
