3402694 - UI Rule of Default Value Returns an Unexpected Value

Symptom

When creating a default value of a UI rule using the code of the field, it returns an unexpected value.

Environment

SAP Cloud for Customer

Reproducing the Issue

This scenario can happen in any object, we will use the Ticket object as an example

  1. Go to Service work center.
  2. Go to ticket view.
  3. Click on Create Ticket button.
  4. You will see that in the field that was applied the rule of default value, return an unexpected value. For example: return value with 492 code when it should return 49.

Cause

It is a system behavior that if two codes starts with the same numbers, the code with last number will be returned,

for example (you want to return 49, but it exists another code 492, so it will return 492 because in the system the search uses 49* so it will return with last digit together).

Resolution

This is the expected system behavior.
