Set Resources Module Defaults

Using the Setup module, you can establish how TMS populates some pages by setting up default values for fields. You can also change fonts for all users, a single user, or a group.

To set up Resources defaults, follow these steps:

From the Setup menu, select Resources > Defaults.

The Defaults Editor window opens.
Select who the defaults are being defined for.
- To set defaults for a group, from the Group drop-down menu at the top, select All or select a specific group.
- To set defaults for a specific user, click the Toggle Group/User button to the right of the drop-down menu and then select a user.
User defaults override group defaults.
To change the Module label, Default Query Results report, or the report designated as the Default Quick Print Report, click the module name in the left pane, under General.
To change the defaults for a specific field in a field group, expand the field group by clicking the arrow next to the group and then click the field in the expanded group. See below for steps on modifying the defaults for a specific field.
Click OK to save your changes.

To customize the field label, modify the value in the Custom Label field.
To set a default value, enter the value in the Default Value field.
