B) Load last other Column : Last Row Saved Value show Automatic in Different Column ( formula, Number ) Example Last Row C " column value Automatic show in A. this feature useful for calculation.
this feature is useful for same day ( Date ) , many entry , for production Data , Example Production Date , shift,
Dear Sir ,
Feature Request :
Great feature ideas! Here’s a clearer breakdown of your suggestions for SeaTable default value behavior, along with examples for each:
Initial / Changeable Default Value
Meaning: A default value is pre-filled when a new row is created, but the user can change it.
Example: In a “Status” column (Single Select), the default is set to “Pending”. When adding a new row, “Pending” appears automatically, but the user can change it to “Approved” or “Rejected”.
Fixed Default Value (Read-only)
Meaning: A default value is shown automatically and cannot be changed by the user.
Example: In a “Country” column, the default is “India” and users are not allowed to edit it. This is useful for forms where the value should remain constant.
Last Saved Value as Default
Meaning: The system remembers the last value entered and uses it as the default for the next new row.
Example: If you entered “Mumbai” in the “City” column in the last row, the next new row will automatically show “Mumbai” as the default city.
Feature Request: Use Value from Row 1, Column A as Default in Row 2, Column B
Goal: When entering a new row (e.g., Row 2), SeaTable should automatically use the value from Column A, Row 1 as the default value in Column B of Row 2.
Explanation:
In Row 1, you manually enter:
A = 1000 (Previous Reading)
B = 1015 (Current Reading)
In Row 2:
A = 1015 (auto-filled from Row 1’s B)
B = (you enter today’s reading, e.g., 1030)This setup helps calculate daily consumption easily:
(Changeable) Default values are available - in all SeaTable Cloud plans - for columns of type text, long text, number, date, single select, checkbox, and rating.
(Fixed) Default values in forms have been supported for quite a while in all SeaTable Cloud plans. We have recently improved upon this feature. Specifically, we added a feature to hide these fields.
First off, I have a problem regarding a permanently changing value as a default value. But even if you do, this feature has at best moderate relevance.
Additionally, the computations in your example can be done with a data processing operation of type ‘Calculate accumulated value’.
