This topic describes how to specify the default values.
You can specify a default value for a user-defined field.
The option list positioned next to this field will be
enabled only if the field is a cube entity. Else the option list will be
disabled.
For example, assume that your bank wants to capture an
additional currency field for processing certain transactions and the
default value for this additional field has to be USD. Therefore, your
selections will be as follows:
Field Type –Cube Entity
Cube Entity Type- Currency
The option list in the ‘Default Value’ field displays all the
currencies maintained at your bank. Select USD. Consequently, in the UDF
screen of the Contract Input or Function Id screen, USD will be displayed as
the default currency.
Note:
If you have specified a default value for a field
and also the derivation rule, the value obtained from the derivation
rule will take precedence over the default value at the Contract/
Function Id level.
