how to default expenditure type for issue to project misc transaction

Summary:

Hi,

We are looking for a way to somehow default the expenditure type when we do the issue to project miscellaneous transaction, we've found out that at the item level we can defined a default expenditure type, but somehow it is not getting defaulted we we perform the transaction?

Is this a expected behavior? if the answer is yes then what is the usage of the default expenditure type at the item level? and if there is any alternative to default the expenditure type when we issue the stock to project?
