Setting field defaults
The Default tab allows you to define the default value for the column. You can either select the default object from the database defaults or define the default value for the column.
Specify a default field value that is entered when no other entry is made.
Possible values are:
- literal: Inserts a specified string, numeric value, or date value;
- NULL: Enters a NULL value;
- USER: Enters the user name of the current user.
Note that the default value set for the field based on a domain at the Default tab of the Field Editor will override the corresponding value set for the domain.
Enabling the
Not Null option of the Field Editor involves that Field Value by Default dialog appears. You will be able to set a direct value as default or use the one of the listed fields.
