Default values with workflow rules

[former_member750240]

Hi,

i want to set a default value for a filed on load if that field does not contain data. I tried to make a workflow that would set a default value with the condition "does not contain data", but i couldnt find that condition. How can i achieve that?

Thank you, Dejan

Please check via condiions if there is a comparision operator called Isintial , this means that is empty/ null .

Hello prasanth.sarma.aryasomayajula ,

how can I achieve this condition check via workflow? I dont see in the workflow condition editor an option for "isinitial"...
I tried to check for field XYZ is an no value selected in the value option. But this does not work...

Thanks for feedback.
BR, Deborah

If the field doesn't support that property it is not exposed and not all fields have all all field properties enabled.

Hi,

depends on what type of attributes you are talking about.

If you want to make default for custom fields created over KUT than you make default value immediately when you create this attribute.

If you want to make default for custom fields created over PDI than you make coding in SAP application studio, usually using after modify event.

If you want to make default for standard field, that you can for some types of attributes (like codlist values, or boolean)use code list restriction work center. There you can find tab "default values".
