Modifying Form Behaviour Oracle Applications

Question

Hello:
I have a problem with a form in Oracle Applications 10.7.0.
FORM - RCVCOFND.fmb ( Find Expected Receipts (16) ) Receiving--> Receipts
Upon entering this form Input Focus defaults to "Source Type". Users have decided that they would like to Default to "Purchase Order" item upon entry to this form.
I added code to CUSTOM.PLL that tests for WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE and form_name however form_name returns "RCVRCERC" which is not the form that I want to modify navigation.
Further investigation reveals that form RCVCOFND has its own PLL, BUT we are not allowed to modify this PLL, only the CUSTOM.pll is modifiable.
Does anyone have any suggestions or could advise on a workaround please.
Oracle Applications 10.7.0 SC161
Oracle Applications Client SC161
Application Object Library 7.5.16.02
Oracle Forms 4.5.7.1.8
RDBMS 8.1.6.3.0
Thanks.

1. Copy your form (test.fmb) into $AU_TOP/forms/US
2. Compile with f60gen
3. Copy the test.fmx file to $PRODUCT_TOP/forms/US
4. Login to Oracle Applications with sysadmin user
5. Select Application Developer responsibility
6. Navigate to Application - Form -
7. Enter the values for following parameter
Form = test
Application = You can select from LOV
User Form Name = Enter as you like
Description = Enter if any
8. Navigate to Application - Function
9. Enter the values in the function form
in Description TAB - Enter the value for Function, User Function Name, Description
in Properties TAB - Type = FORM
Maint.Mode Support = None
Context Dependence = Responsibility
in Form TAB - Form = Select your form name that already registered (above one)
Application = Will display
Parameters = STARTUP_MODE= TEST
10. Now you can attach the form in Menu then Responsibility
Revert back if you have any query.
