How do auto populate requested field on Project form

[June Anderson]

I am a sys admin and not familiar with the whole development/config in ServiceNow

I do, however, want to auto-populate a Requested by field on the Project form so that whenever I open up the project form it auto-populates with the logged-in user 

I would like for it to auto-populate with the logged-in user just like the change request form 

On the change form, when you open it to create a change request, it auto-populates the requested by the user.

I have tried looking at OOTB to see if I can see the configuration but I am not able to identify it 

Thank you 

I am sure if I am able to identify the code, I should be able to get it done.

ok, this time around it works but I don't see the changes captured in my update set. How can I get it on my update set please, I also have a previous script on the default value as javascript.global.incidentGetCaller();

Will changing the default value to javascript.gs.getUserID(); affect any functionality
