  • Key Concepts: 
    Default attribute is a feature of the Business Object Builder (BOB) component of SAP software. It allows users to set a default value for an attribute in a business object. This value will be used as the default value for all instances of the business object. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use the default attribute feature, users must first create a business object in BOB. Once the object is created, users can select the “Default Attribute” option from the menu. This will open a window where users can enter the desired default value for the attribute. Once saved, this value will be used as the default value for all instances of the business object. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When setting a default attribute, it is important to consider how it will affect existing instances of the business object. If an existing instance has a different value than the default, it will not be changed when the default is set. Therefore, it is important to consider how setting a default attribute may affect existing data before doing so.
