Does extending a custom table count as another custom table in your total allowed count?

Most licenses only allow you to have a certain number of custom tables.

However, if you extend a custom table, does that count as an additional custom table? Or is it all rolled up into 1?

It counts as another table.

They also have a limit on columns per custom table to ensure you don't build huge tables to avoid extending.

No doubt there are exceptions but if you look at the filter they are using on the custom table list it basically matches a query on the db_object table with names that start with x or a u.

You can filter out the import set row tables then grab the list of cmdb tables from SNC.CMDBUtil.getAllChildrenOfAsCommaList('cmdb');

Import set row and cmdb tables are exempt from your count but do have a limit of 1000 each.

So it's a bit new for me but if folk have other experience I'd love to hear it

Regards

I think best way might be to filter by 'Created By' as someone may change the table name and it may not start with 'x' or 'u'.
