Jess,
>Why is it that there are no default values in the newly created data eventhough there is a value set in the database structure? Like for instance, if I put default value of zero (0) in column/field amount and I created a new record, the amount is still null using MM Business Object to add data?
Your database default values don't kick in until you save the data to the database. That said, when you use the Business Layer Generator it looks at your database default values and should be using these as default values. I recommend running the BLG, selecting that database table, then the column and see if it specifies a default value.
