2-3. Add drop-down default values

In this step we will convert some of the existing fields into Drop-Down fields so that the end-user will not have to type data into those fields.

We will convert the following form fields to drop-down lists with the following default values:

Form field	Default value
Company Code	German Company 1000
Purchasing Organization	German Purchasing 1000
Country	USA
Accounting Terms of Payment.	NT30

To convert a field to a drop-down field:

1. In the form, left-click in the field. This will open the General Properties in the Properties pane.

   

2. Next to Element Type, click the drop arrow, and then select Dropdown from the list.
3. Next to Options, click the Options button to open the Options Editor.

   

4. For now, you can manually enter drop-down choices for each of the possible drop-down values (see example below). In later steps, we will get drop-down values from SharePoint and from SAP.

In some fields, we will enter static default values (such as German Company 1000).

You can enter default values by clicking a form field, selecting Properties, and then entering the default value in the resulting dialog box.
