Dynamic Defaults for Item fields - DEFAULT VALUE

edited Dec 3, 2019 11:47AM in SuiteCloud / Customization 4 comments

I am trying to create a default value for an Item Field but it's giving me the ERROR: Invalid Expression when I use text and a tag.

For example I have the field custitemcolorid that has colors and I want the default value for the another field to be:

Color: {custitemcolorid}

So the field would output for example "Color: Black"

When I use {custitemcolorid} by itself in the default field it works and it outputs the name of the color, as soon as I put text it gives me an error. Is there a specific format I need to use when I need the default to have text and a tag?

Howdy, Stranger!
