## Overview
The Labii SelectCheckbox widget allows users to select one or more values from a custom list of options. It provides the same configuration, data handling, and functionality as the [MultiSelect widget](/widgets/column-widgets/form/dropdown/multiselect.md), but displays all available choices directly as checkboxes in the Edit and Form views instead of placing them inside a dropdown. This layout makes every option visible and allows users to compare and update multiple selections quickly.
## Use case
1. Use this widget to select the regulations and quality standards that apply to a laboratory document.
2. Use this widget to assign multiple research categories when users need to review every available choice at a glance.
## Configuration
To enable the widget's functionality, provide a list of options. Each option can include the following fields:
* **Dropdown option** - The value displayed to users.
* **Color** - The color used to highlight the option.
### Example
```json
[
{"option": "ISO 9001"},
{"option": "ISO 13485"},
{"option": "FDA 21 CFR Part 11"}
]
```
## Views
See the interface of the widget in the following views.
### **Readonly view**
The Readonly view displays the selected values in the same way as the MultiSelect widget.
### **Edit view**
The Edit view displays all configured options as a visible checkbox list. Select or clear individual checkboxes to modify the column value, or use **SELECT ALL** to select every option.
### **Form view**
The Form view is the field integrated into the add form for collecting values when creating a new record.
The Form view is the same as the Edit view.
## Data
Each widget in Labii stores data in a unique manner; refer below to understand how data from this widget is stored.
### Data format
The selected options are stored as JSON data with `sid` and `name` keys.
```json
[{"sid": "", "name": ""}]
```
### **Default value**
The Default Value field within the column allows you to specify the default value when a record is created.
Enter selected option values separated by commas.
`ISO 9001, ISO 13485`
### **Import value**
The Import Value is the value you need to include in your Excel table for it to be imported into Labii.
Enter selected option values separated by commas.
`ISO 9001, ISO 13485`
