I added only one new Related List to the User form, but the existing Related Lists are also being captured in the Update Set. Should I capture only the new Related List entry? Why are the existing Related Lists also being captured, and what is the best practice in this case?

Hi @sonimore101 
That is the expected behavior. Whenever you modify a related list from the form view, the corresponding record from the sys_ui_related_list table is captured in the current update set.

@J Siva Thanks for clarifying. I have captured only the new related list entry that I added using the “Add to Update Set” option. Can I move this update set, or could it have any impact?

Hello @J Siva 

Could you please answer the query above? It’s a bit urgent.

Hi @sonimore101 

If you do the related list configuration changes from the form view, then your update set captures everything like order of the related lists etc.

If you are planning to move the specific change via update set, there won't be any major impact but still its not recommended.

In future if some other developer works on the same form/related list, then they might get error during the preview.
