Default Values

By implementing the Default Values options when defining a document type’s profile coding, you can set a specific metadata field value to auto-populate based on the document type.

To use these new options, you must first create a custom metadata field in Form Settings. You must be sure to include the custom field in Coding before you save the final changes.

1. Click the Default Values tab.
2. Click the Add button. The Field textbox activates.
3. Click the dropdown arrow at the right end of the box.
4. Select the necessary custom metadata field from the list.
5. Set the field’s default value by typing the value in the textbox.
6. Click Save.
