Hi Team,
One user is unable to see or add the Description field while creating a New Template on the Incident table.
- User has snc_internal role
- Description field is visible on the Incident form
- Issue occurs only during template creation
- As an admin, I am able to see the field without any issue
Could you please suggest if this is due to ACL restrictions (e.g., save_as_template) or any specific configuration?
Thanks!

in your 1st screenshot there is spelling mistake for field name and hence not showing
use correct one description

Hi Ankur, I was typing 'descrip' just to search for the description field. There is no spelling mistake. Still, the field is not showing.

Hi Ankur,
Thank you for your input.
I verified the spelling, and even after providing the correct Description field, it was still not appearing while creating the template.
As a workaround, I created an ACL with the following configuration:
- Table: Incident.*
- Operation: save_as_template
- Role: snc_internal
After this change, the issue is resolved, and the Description field is now visible while creating templates.
Could you please confirm if using the snc_internal role in this scenario is a good practice?
Or would you recommend using a custom role or any other better approach?
Thanks!
