    <blockquote> <p>Because of this, the location SelectList should be defaulted to Location5 when ever a entry screen for a new employee is displayed. Should I be defaulting the location in the model or in the view-model?</p> </blockquote> <p>It's business logic in your example, but that won't stop you from having your cake and eating it too in this instance. The model can specify a default value; the view then initializes itself with this default value.</p> <p>In general, whether or not something is "business logic" or "presentation logic" depends on whether it concerns the domain or not. For instance, setting the earliest year in a date drop-down to, say, 1900 is probably a presentation concern. But it could also be a business concern, if the system isn't designed to accept dates earlier than 1900.</p> <blockquote> <p>One thing I realized is that the unit tests become awkward because in both cases, I'd be forced to test against a location that will always be present in production but I cannot create a unit test with my own test data unless "Atlanta" was in the set of locations being used in the test. I'd be greatful if you have any thoughts on this as well.</p> </blockquote> <p>With the strategy I mentioned above, unit-testing is easy. Simply verify that:</p> <ul> <li>the model provides a default value</li> <li>the view accepts this default value</li> <li>the view initializes itself to this default value</li> <li>the view has the appropriate behavior whether or not the model supplies that value</li> </ul>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
