Often you want to tag additional information to your scorecard whether it is adding additional owners or areas of organisations against measures in your system. Normally we simply create a drop down box in the application hierarchy but once the list gets long it becomes harder to manage and to order alphabetically unless you re-write [...]

Often you will see that if by mistake or intentionally you named measures too long and used the same description in the short description field, users will see a truncated version of the measure name in the multiple measure update form.
