[rambabu1]

Hi,

i have a field on form it's reference field and i need to set default value for that field.

below is the script that i written in default value. but it's not working

[Ankur Bawiskar]

don't give any default value.

When you click the lookup field did you check if user is able to see that record or not?

yes user able to see. but in the form i need hide that field and need to pass default value.

Hi,

then default value should work fine

OR

you can use onLoad client script and set the sysId and then hide that field

Hi,

Please make sure a record is available in reference table with this sys_id.

Also note that the default value will be set on new records only. It will not make any changes to existing records. You have to run background script to set Default values if the field is empty.

Thanks,
