They allow you to store multiple values for a single field, which can be used to manage relationships such as customer preferences or product categories. In this example, we saw how to programmatically update a multi-select pick list value on a record in Zoho CRM. We used a deluge script to get the record with the related multi-select pick list, and then we used a map and list variable to update the pick list value.

Multi select picklists in Zoho CRM create a new module to link two records types together by allowing the user to select multiple options from a list of choices. For example, if a user wants to link two records types, Account and Contact, they can do so by selecting multiple options of the Account record type in the picklist field of the Contact record type. This linking module provides a simple and efficient way for users to connect two different record types in Zoho CRM, allowing for more insights into the data and relationships between them.
