How to set a default value for a list box

I'm using a list box as a way of selecting the financial year and period, but I always want it to default to the current financial year and period. How do I do this?

Thanks.

You can achieve this by adding trigger to your document... Document Properties >> Trigger on fields

or Trigger on Sheet

What exactly looks like your list boxes?

Set up a Select Field Trigger through a button/sheet.

Define the Field Name

Search sting : =Year(Today())&Month(Today())  [According to the format of the field]
