Default values
Default values are defined for form fields for each field point or location. When you open a form in the mobile app default values would be auto populated in the form. You can change the values if you want but, default values can reduce amount of typing you would do in the field. Things such as well diameter, casing material, water quality meter can be pre-set so that you dont have to type it every time unless it changed in the field.
