Problem
When adding a new value in a Text-type Product Attribute, the system auto-populates the Value field with a numeric placeholder. This placeholder can be saved without user modification and is treated as a valid value.
Impact
- Placeholder values saved unintentionally → data integrity risk
- No validation to ensure user input
- Inconsistent behavior vs other forms (no blank-field validation)
- Requires manual overwrite → error-prone for large datasets
Expected Behavior
System should ensure placeholder values are not persisted as actual data.
Suggested Solution
- Do not auto-populate (leave blank + enforce validation), OR
- Treat placeholder as non-persistent and require user modification before save, OR
- Add validation to block saving unchanged placeholder values
