Ok. I tried the workaround - able to save now, but when I delete a row and come back to the same page, an empty row gets added at the bottom. I tried gettting the value of the elements in the grid into a temp CDT, null the original CDT, and then assign the temp CDT to the original CDT, but still the empty rows show up

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. The reference number for this issue is AN-40978.

As a workaround:

1. Map your column to a text (multiple) node input let's say accountTypeCd
2. Create a custom output to map that node output to the right pv, for instance make the expression:

=ac!accountTypeCd

3. Map the custom output to the right pv using the "store as" operator

=pv!pkAccSecList.accountType.accountTypeCd

Here's an example: forum.appian.com/.../121848

It is only the text box columns which have this issue. I have others columns in the same grid(checkboxes) which takes a default value from the same CDT and saves into another CDT of the same type and they work without issues

Update - if I create a new text input(multiple) and try saving to that, it saves without any issues, but when I try to save it to a same data type as the default value one, the default gets wiped out. Can you check if this is a defect

Can you also describe what's single and what's multiple in this expression:

pv!pkAccSecList.accountType.accountTypeCd

I forgot to ask if this is a regular grid or a paging grid

Save without a default value and default value without a save value is working.

version - 7.2, not it is not a start form.
Expression for default value- =pv!pkAccSecList.accountType.accountTypeCd and the value is rendering fine. If I give the Save value as attribute for the column, save exit the form and open it gain, the default value vanishes.

What Appian version?
Is this on a start form?
What's the expression you're using for the default value?
