Adding "Edit" button to a related list

[waseem5]

Hi

How can I add 'Edit' button to a related list on form/table "Demand". this table if referenced in "Change Request" allowing me to create relationship[ between the two. I am able to create new Changes from Demand using this related list. But cannot find Edit button.

Thanks in anticipation

Right click on the related list on the form and go to Configure->List Control. Here uncheck "Omit Edit button". Here you can have specify roles that can see edit button. You have to edit ACL to allow write access to the related list table if its not there.

HI Mansi,

In my case, the Omit edit button is unchecked but the Edit button is still not showing. I wonder maybe it's because the 'Related list' field is showing sys_id ?

How do I correct this?

HI Jocelyn

you are right. related list is showing some sys_id and that's the reason you are not able to see the "edit" option.

it should show the name of the "Related list" on which you need to add Edit button.

for eg.

in the below Change Form I want to add Edit button on related list called as "Incident Caused By Change"

so I will go to Configure->List Control as shown below:

as you see in the below image. in the related list it is showing the name of the Related list only

just Save it and that's it Job is done,.,.

All the best..

Hi Shashank Joshi,

I got response from others, they said,   the reason why its showing sys_id is because I added/created it. If its oob, then it will show the table.column_name.

I tried the above and the Edit button is still not showing. I believe it has something to do with the relationship, I need to make it many to many ?
