In previous versions of IFS Cloud, I was able to handle defaults using a Process Enrichment task when creating a record.  For example, on creating a Customer I could have a “before” BPA push defaults for Default Language, Country and Category.  These values would show up on the page as soon as the user pressed + (New).

In 23r2 this doesn’t work anymore.  Has this capability been intentionally discontinued?

Hi @paul harland,

 

In order to set default values, you may use the CustomerHandling.CustomerInfo_Default() call since that’s what executed when the New button is pressed.

Set the timing to After in order to avoid the values are being reset from IFS base method call.

I tested in 24R1 and it worked fine.

 

Cheers!

I could have a workflow like this, triggered on CustomerInfoSet / Before
It would enter a default value for description into the new customer page, as soon as you clicked New button
