This is resolved….

var currentUser = scope.$root.account;
console.log(currentUser);
console.log(currentUser.id);

//for(i=1;i<40;i++)
//    {
//    console.log("The value is : " + scope.allFormFields.value+" with index : "+i);
//    }

for (var fieldArrayIndex = 0; fieldArrayIndex < scope.allFormFields.length; fieldArrayIndex++) {
    var field = scope.allFormFields[fieldArrayIndex];
    console.log(field.id + ' ' + field.value + ' ' + field.type);
    if (field.id === 'myfield' && !field.value) {
        field.value = "12345";
    }
    if (field.id === 'date' && !field.value) {
        var currentDate = new Date();
        field.value = currentDate.toISOString();
    }
    if (field.id === 'approver' && !field.value) {
        field.value = currentUser;
    }

}

console.log('end');
