Hard or Temp altitude?

TFaudree_ERAU · November 19th, 2006, 17:07

This question has come up amongst the controllers on VATSIM, so I'm asking a professional. In the enroute environment, when clearing an aircraft for a descent into its destination, would you change the altitude to a hard or temp altitude on the datablock?
