How do I set up insert default values in EMu?

[reguzik]

A user can set up any number of sets default values for any module.

Insert defaults are applied whenever a new record is created and Query defaults will automatically populate the query tabs when a module is opened.

N.B. To create Query defaults omit step 3 and stay in query mode.

1. Log into EMu
2. Open the module
3. Create a new record
4. Type in all the defaults in every field, in every tab
5. Select Edit -> Default Values -> Set as Defaults
6. When the Defaults Properties box appears, type in a memorable name for that set of defaults - Click OK
7. Apply Defaults
8. Select Edit -> Default Values -> Change When the Defaults box appears, select the name of the set of defaults you want, the one you just named, for instance. - Click OK

N.B. Your system administrator may have already set up default values for you in some modules. Users cannot changes these.

Query defaults can be created in the same way. Follow the same set of directions, but don't create a new record first. Follow all directions skipping step 3.
