Here the data source will be defined from which the entries in the multiple selection originate.

Here you can define the field, the values of which will be saved when the user selects an entry in the multiple selection list. This gives you the ability, for example, to show names of employees in the multiple selection list, but to not save the names, but rather the ID number that belongs to them.
