Most of the **Define Lists** in SYSPRO 6.1 now allow you to set default values.

Once list is created, you can set which form values will automatically load when users open the program.

## Setting Warehouse Values in the Inventory Query

In this example, we are going to define a list of warehouses to display in **Inventory Query**  > **Warehouse Values Selection** pane and save this list as the default when launching the **Inventory Query**.

Under the **Warehouse Selection** field in the **Inventory Query** window, select **List**.

Then under **List of Warehouses**, select **Define list**.

![define-lists-inventory-query-window](https://customer.syspro.com/hs-fs/file-1002989443-png/customer_blog/define-lists-inventory-query-window.png?width=631&name=define-lists-inventory-query-window.png)

In the **Define List of Items** window, enter the warehouses we want to see in the **List of Items**.

In the **Save list as** field at the top of the **Define List of Items** window, enter the name of your list and tab off to save the list.

In the **Load list** field of the **Define List of Items** window, select your new list and click **Accept and Close** to select the list.

Now under the **List of warehouses**, the list we just created is now displayed.

To save this list as default, we need to select **Save Form Values as Default**.

In **Inventory Query**, you can do this by opening the **Autoload Values** button.

In other programs, right click on the panel and select **Options** > **Save Form Values as Default**.

The next time the **Inventory Query** program is loaded, it will only show data from the warehouses that we defined against **MyList**.
