Default value for reference field not showing up

[yundlu316]

We have a custom table with a reference field to sys_user and we want the default value to be the current user.  Under the Default Value tab, we put in javascript:gs.getUserID().  When we go back to the form, we can see that a value is in there as indicated by the "i" button next to the field, but the field is empty:

How do we get the current user to populate in the actual field?

Hi,

with which user you are testing this?

with the user who submitted the form i.e. David Lu or some other user?

Mark Correct if this solves your issue and also mark Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
