You can do this.

In your model.xml file define a consrtaint right after the namespaces section.

<constraints>
   <constraint name="xxx:commType" type="LIST">
      <parameter name="allowedValues">
         <list>
            <value>Skype</value>
            <value>Cell Phone</value>
            <value>Fax</value>
         </list>
      </parameter>
   </constraint>
</constraints>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

In your type definition, add the constraint to the property.

<type name="xxxdoc>
         <title>Some Doc</title>
         <parent>cm:content</parent>
         <properties>
          …
            <property name="xxx:communicationType">
               <title>Communication Type</title>
               <type>d:text</type>
               <constraints>
                   <constraint ref="xxx:commType" />
               </constraints>
            </property>
         </properties>
      </type>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

In your web-client-config-custom.xml file, add the entry for this property.

<config evaluator="node-type" condition="xxx:doc">
      <property-sheet>
                  <show-property name="xxx:communicationType"/>
      </property-sheet>
   </config>‍‍‍‍‍

You should be up and running after this.
