Default Settings

Use default settings to generate test data for the columns that you have not assigned specific generation rules to.
When you create a project and import target metadata, the project contains the default generation rules for all data types that a TDM administrator configures. When you open a project, you can view the default data generation rules, default primary key generation rules, and default unique key generation rules for all data types from the Overview | Properties tab. Edit the default settings if you want to change the default generation rules.
The following table describes the properties to configure the default settings:
