Setting the user-defined data for a dialog column

Follow these guidelines when defining user-defined data

  • Use the 1,012 characters when defining a parameter.
  • The parameter string must be in JSON format.
  • Remember that commas and quotes are used for parsing parameters.
  • The entire parameter must start and end with curly brackets.
Note: Setting the default values using triggers is only applicable for combo boxes.
  1. Select System Configuration > Dialog design.
  2. Select a dialog and proceed to the Dialog layout tab.
  3. Select Control and click Control properties. Set the user defined data.
  4. Specify the column value parameters. This parameter defines the maximum number of characters that are specified in the column defined as single line or multi-line text box.

    CLM@SetValue=ColumnValue

    where:

    ColumnValue is the column name under CRMUser Table.

    Here is an example default value in Account Entity using CountryCode:

    CLM@SetValue= {"ColumnValue":"CRMUser.CountryCODE"}

  5. Click Close. Set the parameters on each control, if needed.
    Note: Not all column controls support the use of parameters in the user-defined data. Each column control type can support multiple sets of parameters, but only one set is defined.
