Unexpected Behavior When Creating a New item

[obourne]

I'm in the PM tab adding new linked items. When I choose "new" I'm presented with the dialog for creating a new item that only shows the required fields. The non-required fields are not displayed. So far so good.

The issue is the new item's non-required fields have default values (configured in set up) that do not populate the field. I would expect the default value to be added to that field, well, by default and not be blank.

Any ideas?

Hi,

I ran a simple test by adding a default value to the description field found in the default Tasks workspace. When I add a new linked item to a project in PM workspace, the new task item when saved and added does show the correct default value in description field. Please let me know the type of field (money, integer, date, etc.) you are seeing the issue with and if the new item is associated to a workflow.

Hi,

It is a field of type URL. See attached.

The new items does have a workflow and milestones.

Hi,

I am still unable to reproduce the issue. Please carefully review screencast recording at http://screencast.com/t/KjfgbvPtyvM and let me know the steps I may be missing to see the problem.

What you showed is exactly what I have......as far as I can tell.

BTW The URL field fills in if I create the item "normally" (i.e. not in context of a PM tab in a nother item).
