glide.domain.default

Sets the domain ID used as the default when the property contains a nonempty value other than “global.” When it is unset or set to “global,” domain selection falls back to a domain marked as default, with global as the initial fallback; a validation rule populates the property from the current domain when none is marked default.

Script include: getDefaultDomain A nonempty value other than “global” is used as the default domain; otherwise, the code looks for a domain marked as default, with “global” as its initial fallback. This determines which domain is treated as the default, but the shown code does not specify how that affects users or admins. /sys_script_include.do?sys_id=0943d1f15f331000b12e3572f2b4771c
Business rule: Domain - Validate Default This rule does not read the property; if no other domain is marked Default, it sets the property to the current domain’s ID. It passes no fallback value; if another default exists, the property is unchanged, and the update is blocked if that domain is hidden from the admin. /sys_script.do?sys_id=071686505f231000b12e3572f2b477ed
