What is the best practice on date type field default value?

[Rain Vaine]

Hello experts,
Does anyone of you have any insights on the best practice for setting a default value in a field?

For example in this field, the script can be used to populate the field with value of 2100-01-01. But there is also a dynamic filter for that one:

Do you know of the best practice for this one?
Regards,
Vaine

Hi @Rain Vaine ,

If you see both methods are making the use of script only to set the default value of Date field. So you can choose either depending upon the complexities of your requirement.

Hi @Rain Vaine,

if you want to set the default value then you can define this in default value of any filed but if you want to set the field value of some condition then you will need to write the script and some logic as per the business requirement.

Please accept my solution if it works for you and thumps up.

Thanks
