How to change an extended table's field's default value?

[ty_roach]

I would like to make the default value for the 'state' field within a project record be 1 (Open). The pm_project table extends the planned_task table which extends the task table. The 'state' field displayed in the pm_project form comes from the task table.

So, when I right click the 'state' field from the Project form and select "Personalize Dictionary", I then create a "Dictionary Overrides" entry, specifying the table to be pm_project, click the 'Override Default Value' checkbox, then enter the value 1 (Open).

The problem is, whenever I create a new project, the state field continues to show the Task table default, which is -5 (Pending).

Not sure what I need to do to correct this?

There is a Business Rule called "Set default values" that is setting the project to Pending. You can trying adjusting that business rule or deactivating it.

I've run into the exact same issue as originally posted so I was extremely excited to see this post. I set the business rule to inactive and tried to use my dictionary override but still ended up with the project in pending. I went back and deleted my dictionary override and changed default value in the business rule and set it to active but still the same thing. Am I completely missing something obvious?

Mike is correct. This is what we did to correct the problem. Thanks for posting mike.

I am trying to do the same thing as Ty was questioning. I am not able to figure this out. I still get state is Pending(-5). I tried to look for the business rule "Set default Values" but i can't find it. I am on Eureka and maybe that is the difference? Can anyone help? Thanks in advance!
