Work with item classification profiles, Characteristic, Default value (DMR10404)

Related topics

On this panel you can enter/select a default value for the selected characteristic that is connected to the profile 1 code. Default values allow you to save time by assigning, in advance, some values for characteristics you know will always be the same for all items.

Default values will be loaded into the Values fields when you are in the process of applying the Item classification definition in the Item file to create the item.

When defining default values you have the following options:

  • Prompt the selection window to select from a list. The values displayed in the list are those that exist at detail level in the Work with characteristics file for the selected characteristic.
  • Enter one manually. The default value you enter does not necessarily have to already exist as a characteristic value at Characteristic detail level. If the characteristic is set up with the Validate flag set to NO, you can enter any default value. This new value will be back-updated in the Work with characteristics, Details file.
