Setting default values in forms

Cannikin

Is there a way to set a default value in a form? For example: a new Item is created and several of the fields are already filled in with the most common values. Thanks!

go to Object Designer and click Design on the Item Table.

you will see a list of the Fields.
find the field you want (ex. Inventory Posting Group)
View the Properties. You will see INITVALUE.

There you can enter a default

Found it!! That raised another question though: how do I set the default value if it's an Option field?

Do I specify the number of the row that I want in the option? For example, if there are 4 options I tell it that I want the default to be "2" meaning the second option.

Thanks!

Hi

Example OptionString
UnInitialsed,New,Current,Complete

Option Values Start at 0 (zero).
The Integer Values will be 0,1,2,3. So you if you Want New then you would enter 1.

But then you could just enter New instead.
