Display UI Action on related list with no records

Hi all,

Is it possible to show a UI Action button on a related list if there are no records in the related list?

Scenario is when my related list comes back with 0 records, I need a UI Action (one of three) on the related list tab 'Purchase New', which will kick off a separate process.

Currently my UI Action only shows up when I have records in the related list.

If the New button can be displayed on a table w/ no records, I'd think I could do something similar w/ my own UI Action on a related list.

Thoughts?

Hi

just tested it out with a new blank UI Action:

Result is a Test button which can be used without selecting any records

After removing the sysverb_ prefix I have to select records first.

So the best is to start with a completely new UI Action and add more and more configurations to fit your needs. Do not reuse an existing one. There was a case where I had wasted several hours of searching and getting crazy until I found out, that I forgot to remove a role at UI Action tab "Requires Roles"

Kind regards
Maik
