Default Values App (Office 365)

• Configure default values for all column types
  While in SharePoint on-line out-of-the-box there are some column types that cannot have default values, such as: Lookup and Person fields, with the Default Values app you can now configure default values for all column types.

• Use dynamic tokens to reference other column values
  Is there a single SharePoint user who didn’t face the unpleasant experience when uploading a document and then having to manually copy its name to the Title field?With the Default Values app you can easily configure default values based on values of other columns, and also use dynamic tokens such as [Me] and [Today].

• Different users/groups can have different default values
  Sometimes depending on you form logic, you need different users filling-out the same form, to have different default values for some of the form fields.Example: When an end-user fills-out a new Support Ticket form, the “Reported By” field should have by default the value of the current user. However, when a Helpdesk engineer fills-out the same form he probably does it on behalf of an end-user, so he would require this field to be empty by default.With the Default Values app you can configure dynamic default values, which are different for different users.

We all got used to working with SharePoint lists and document libraries. It is only natural to expect these list forms (New, Edit, View) to include all required web form features, instead of making us buy and learn a separate Forms technology such as InfoPath or any other Forms servers.

The Default Values app is part of KWizCom Forms app, which allows SharePoint 2013 on-premise and on-line customers to keep using the out-of-the-box list forms by turning them into powerful & dynamic web forms. This way there’s no new technology to learn and deploy, simply keep using the same SharePoint list forms that now can include all the missing web form features.
