Posted on by nicola94 30

Hello

In my app I use a CDS Entity as a Data Source.
One of the fields of this entity is a option set with four values.

In my app I have a form, which cointains this option set field as a combobox
How can I set the default value of this field to one of the choices of the optionset field?

    Hi,

     

    In DefaultSelectedItems property of the combobox select the value which you want to default to. example ["Item 1"].

    Please note it should be in [] (square braces) as it expects in table format.

     

    Mark the answer as verified if it answered your question.

     

    Regards,
