ACL Inheritance from parent to extended tables

[Ian Elrick]

Hi

Can you advise please what is inherited from a parent table when you extend it? 

Obviously, the parent column definitions are inherited but what about ACL roles ?

For example, in the parent table has a role that is required to write to a certain column, will child tables extended from that parent need to allocate that role to individuals who wish to write to the same column in the child table?

Hello,

Yes, the ACL is inherited down to extended tables.
You don't have to add the role to the users, you can add a new ACL on the extended table for that particular field (if the parent has a specific ACL for the field).

Many thanks

Is there anything else that a child inherits from its parent other than column definitions and ACL?

Business rules Client scripts marked as inherit UI Actions UI policies It's actually easier to just right click a record as admin, choose Configure - All It will give the same as incident.CONFIG (table name.CONFIG) and you can look through all that affects the table. The hardest I feel to adjust are UI Actions as they have the same names and need duplicate values (I think the field is called) to override parent action.
