On : 12.2.4 version, Batches

ACTUAL BEHAVIOR
---------------
Transaction qty is defaulting to planned qty in OPM Batch material transaction after the upgrade to 12.1.2.
Earlier the Quantity field used to be blank and user is to input the quantity.

Whenever the user is trying to do a WIP Issue Material Transaction in an OPM Batch, the transaction quantity is defaulting to planned quantity. Before the upgrade to EBS 12.1.2 the Quantity field used to be blank and after the upgrade the quantity is defaulting to planned qty.
We are in a very highly regulated environment. Due to this there is a tendency that user might save whatever the defaulted qty is.
This causes a lot of confusion and errors.
Is there a way so that the qty stays blank and does not default?

1.Navigate the Batch Details window
