@JohnDF  - Create the dictionary overide on the cmdb.owned_by as the field is cloned down from there. see the below screenshot.

Solution2: You can write an onBefore insert BR on the table, condition: class: service  and just set the field value

current.field_name = gs.getUserID();


As in your case you are letting users to change the value anytime.

Hi @JohnDF,

Please follow the following steps:

1. Open dictionary table and use following filter:

table = cmdb AND column name = owned_by
