How to set default value for a reference field on Catalog Item

[depa]

Hi,

i have a reference field service and it has always one record. My question is how can i preselect this value so as a default value on the portal? That i dont need to select it always?

Update: Its not a static value.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Depa,

use this then in the default value section

Note: I assume there is only 1 record in that table

Give your table name in the query of GlideRecord

javascript: getValue(); function getValue(){var gr = new GlideRecord('your_table_name'); gr.query(); if(gr.next()){return gr.sys_id;}}

There should be a Default tab on the variable, you should be able to place the sys_id in that tab for it to find the correct record if you're always defaulting to a static value, if that value changes you can call a script include in that field by using something like javascript: [YOUR SCRIPT INCLUDE HERE]
