Default values & Table Templates

Administrators can pre-define table values in two ways:

• by setting a default value for a column

• be setting up a default value for a row or several rows.

Column default values

Setting up a default value for a column means that every time a new row is added to a table, it will have a pre-defined value in a specific column.

The default value can be set up in the column configuration dialogue. Click on a specific column's three-dot ‘Actions’ icon to open the configuration dialogue.

Row default values

Setting up a default value for table rows allows to set up tables displayed in issue view with automatically created rows, i.g. table template.

To configure a table template select ‘Edit default value’ on the table configuration page.

Once configured select ‘Save’. Every new table will be recreated according to this template.

Tables created before the template is configured will not be updated.

Table template

Users can also create table templates. As long as a table has one row with values, any user can save such a table as a template. The template can then be applied to another table.

To save an existing table as a template, click on the ··· icon and select Save as template option.

Once the template is saved, it can be accessed via the Import from template option in the same menu, which opens the following dialog:

Here, users can browse through a list of available templates to apply to a current table. They can also delete templates from this dialog.
