FAQ
#1

Hi to all,
I would like to know how to set a default value in a field linked to another table (The linked field is set as a dropdown). I want to get the field value “Last name and first name” according to current user . In the queried table there is also an “email” field by which the record could be filtered.

Thanks for any advice

Hi Jirka,
For complex data types (like links) we recommend to use setValue method

The current user object can be set as (login = email)

doo.model.myColumn.setValue(doo.currentUser.login);
