Hi @Abhijeet Pawar,

When you extends a child table from Parent table and if Inherits check box is set as true. It will inherits the UI polices and other components like BRs, ACL's, Client scripts etc. to child table.

 

For example -

If you creates a new table which extends task table. then UI policies of Task table will be inherited to child table.

Hey Abhijeet,

 

If 'inherit' checkbox is set as 'True' in UI policy. It means that any other table that extends the table(in our case 'incident') on which the UI policy is written on, will be using the parent table UI policies.

 

e.g. - UI policy has 'inherit' checkbox set as 'true' means that this UI policy will be applicable for tables which extends this table.

- To allow other tables to extend the current table. You need to enable the extensible field from table.

Note - Same concept is applicable to Client script.

e.g. - Imagine you had a client script on base task table, then checked Inherited. That would mean the client script would be active on incident, problem, change, etc. etc.

 

Hope this helps!

Kartik

What does inheriting the UI policy entail for us? What are the implications of this change? Is this optional or is this the mandatory standard for what it replaced? There is much I don’t understand.
