How to assign a default value for a reference field

[mark141230]

Hi Everyone,

I have a requirement, I need to assign a default display value to my Project Time Category  which is a reference field in a Time Card Table.

In the Project Time Category Table i have the following entries:

 - Standard

 - Non-OT Billable

- OT Billable

- Offset

What I want is, once the user open the form, it will automatically display the "Standard" in the Project Time Category field in the Time Card Forms.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Mark,

Is this always required or specific to some scenario?

If always then use default value at dictionary level.

if based on scenario then either use onload client script or before insert business rule to set the value

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