Add Edit button on Embedded Related Lists

This is the embedded related list. I want to add an edit button. I had seen earlier posts where we can add the button through list control. I do not see an omit edit button though.

 

This is the related list:

This is how the list control appears. I do not see an omit edit button. Would I just have to manually create one?

To enable the edit button on an embedded related list in ServiceNow, you need to adjust the list control settings. Right-click on the header of the related list, navigate to Configure > List Control, and then uncheck the Omit edit button checkbox. You can also manage which roles have access to the edit button by configuring the Edit roles field.

Hello @AM24 ,

Please try below steps:

  1. Add the list as a related list on the form first.
  2. Configure the "List Control" settings, including enabling the Add Edit option.
  3. Save the list control after making the necessary changes.
  4. Remove the related list from the form.
  5. Re-add it as an embedded list to apply the updated settings.
If I was able to help you with your case, please click the Thumb Icon and mark as Correct.

Hello, thank you for the suggestion. I followed the steps, but it doesn't seem like it worked in adding the edit button to the embedded list.
