Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Reporting:
Report Builder Deployment

> ## Specifying default field values

> When you create the Report Engine table, be sure to set the initial value of each field to the default value that Report Engine expects. By default, when you create fields in the Data Dictionary, each field is assigned an initial value, as listed in Table 4–3.

> Table 4–3: Data Dictionary default initial field values
> Field data type | Initial value
> --- | ---
> CHARACTER | empty string
> INTEGER | 0
> LOGICAL | No

> These initial values correspond to the expected Report Engine default values except for the `RB-REPORT-LIBRARY` and `RB-REPORT-NAME` fields. Because you must supply a value for both of these fields, Report Engine cannot accept the default value of an empty string.
