Export when option list is modified

[ljambdadelta]

I have a need to change values of Option List every week. If the value is not present this week, it won't be present at export, despite it existence in database. Yes, there is a workaround to change every time before the export to the list with all possible values but , except for the needless complexity, the main problem is in role management -- i have to modify the client account to administrator, change its menu to add administration links. Yes it's of inconvenience of actual role-based management system, but it's a bit odd way to perform such a simple action. Of course i can (and possibly will) write an python script, accessing directly to the DB, but i wish to see a proper way to do this simple thing by the correct means.
Best regards

Hey @ljambdadelta, I think python may be the best bet! :) There really isn't a decent way to do this with the current features - it's very much a custom task, so yes - Python if your friend.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.
