CMDB Tables and Related Lists

I have a custom table  called Network Circuits that is an extended table of cmdb_ci -> cmdb_ci_hardware - > u_network_circuit.  I have another CMDB table (out of the box) called Routers that is an extended table of cmdb_ci -> cmdb_ci_hardware -> cmdb_ci_netgear -> cmdb_ci_router.

I created a field on the Network Circuits table called parent and it is referencing to the cmdb_ci_ip_router table.

I'm trying to create a related list on the IP Router table, but it didn't automatically create the related list for me (like normal if you have field referencing another table).

So I had to create a custom relationship and now I can select a Related List, but there is no Edit button on it (there is a new button).  I tried everything and looked up lots of KB articles and even updated the Parent field to include the  Reference Float attribute, but to no avail.

Am I out of luck?

I just decided to do away with the relationship and create a reference from the Network Circuit to the Router table via a field on the Network Circuit table called Parent IP Router.  That field is a reference to the cmdb_ci_ip_router table (instead of the other one being a reference to the cmdb_ci table).  Now I have a normal related list.


Thanks!

Thanks apeksha, the link referred to creating a relationship (which works for me) I just can't get an edit button to appear on these types of related lists and that is what I'm looking for.

This still didn't work.  I'm thinking that the edit button is not available for related lists that use relationships.
