 10.   Click the “Save” button.

On the Buyer Interface, when a user clicks “Create New” on this product, if a value exists in the custom user field that value will appear on the spec form.

NOTE: The action of changing a field value from the custom user field default will only affect the field for that specific variant. If the value should be permanently changed that must be done on the Admin tab of the Buyer interface (if the user can view the field) or the Edit User page of the Administrative interface.
