Setting Default Values for Fields That Use Drop-Down Lists

The Picklist Pre Default Field n user property sets default values for fields in a new record of the child business component. To set these values, CRM gets values from the parent business component record. The value for this user property must use the following format:

"field", "'buscomp1.field1','buscomp2.field2',' . . .'"

where:

• field is a field that resides in the current business component.

• buscompn.fieldn is the name of a field that resides in the parent business component.

For example, assume a view references a parent Action business component. The user can use a drop-down list that references the child Opportunity business component to create a new record.

Note the following format requirements:

• You must include a space after the first comma.

• You must use double quotes (") to enclose the list of buscompn.fieldn entries.

• You must use single quotes to enclose each buscompn.fieldn entry.

You can configure Siebel CRM to modify the value for this user property, create a new instance of it, or deactivate it.
