You can only assign values from a list of valid values
to a Global Data Synchronization attribute. If you need to assign
a new value to a Global Data Synchronization attribute, or modify
an existing value, then you need to add the value to the list of valid
values in the lookup table, or modify the existing value in the lookup
table.
Procedure

attribute for the data pool attribute.
