Field default callout

The field default callout can be used to populate default field values in MVS using custom logic. The callout supports the Relief Calling Area (RCA). For example, an implementation of this callout could populate the default value for the employee sort order (Sort Order field) based on properties of the relief shifts.
Note: This callout does not support the RCA when accessed through the Relief Launch Pad.

Customers implementing this callout must create a service to define the custom logic. This service takes the maintenance form ID and a collection of shifts as inputs. It returns a list of fields paired with their default values.

The class for this service is added to the FIELD_DEFAULT_SVC registry parameter. The default class used for the field default callout implements the generic logic for populating fields in the RCA.
