Adding default values to fields during import
Sometimes, during an import, the import file may not contain information about fields that are mandatory or fields where you want to have data in. When an import file does not contain information about these fields, you can set default values on such fields. These values are then received as part of the imported data.
For example, if you are importing Person BO, and the City field does not contain a value in the import file, you can select a default value for the city.
| Typically the default value from Field definer is used, unless overruled by the default as specified in the Enterprise Talk field definition. |
