If I have both Sourcing and default value on a stored field, then will the default value take hold first, and only get overwritten when the record referenced by the source field changes?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
In NetSuite, when a field is both sourced and has a default value, the sourcing takes precedence over the default value. This means that the value of the field will be sourced from the referenced record when a new record is created. The default value will only be applied if the source field is empty or not present. However, if the "Store Value" option is checked for the field, the sourced value will be stored and will not change even if the source record is updated. The stored value will only be updated when a new record is created or the source field is manually updated. Please note that if you change a sourced field to a stored field, the existing records will lose their sourced values. If you need to update a sourced field, you should update the source record or use a workflow with action filters to control the sourcing based on certain conditions. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
