Adding scoped field to global table

Is there a way to add a scoped field to a global table?   I'd like to add a custom field to cmdb_ci so that our scoped app can leverage customer's data/relationships in the CMDB, and I see an option for "Allow new fields" option on the form, but it's hidden from everybody but maint.  

Alternatively, is there another way to accomplish something similar?

Thanks,

Jeremy

Alexey Klimenko, Jeremy Gardner, and rfedoruk are you still having trouble with adding fields to other tables?


There is an error message in FP1 that complains about it, but the field is still created. In FP2 the error message will be gone.



You will have to navigate to the tables configuration page and check "Allow Configuration" if it is not already, but once you do you will be able to create fields. These fields will get created on the customers instance when they install the application even if they do not have allow configuration checked.



To create fields on tables outside your scope you have to do it from one of the following locations on the target table:


  • New Form Section (You create a new section owned by your scope on the table's default view for example)
  • New Form View
  • New List View
  • Dictionary list (Click "New" from the list)
  • Table configuration form (Click the "New" button above the existing fields)
