Getting error while updating the field label.

Hi ,

I am getting an error "Invalid 'Field Label' record even though the selected outside Table 'xxx' is allowed." while i am updating hint in the field label. The table which i am updating the field label on is actually extending the cmdb_ci table.

When i am updating the field label in cmdb_ci table , its allowing me to update and that update is inherited to all the tables extending the cmdb_ci table. 

But i need the field label to be updated only for xxx table.

Can anyone help me out here.

 

Thanks in advance!

To update field hints for only child table , then go the parent table's field dictionary (cmdb field dictionary ) and create new record in Label tab ( if its not already available) , select the table for which you want to add hint, add hint and save it

I am getting an error while updating.

Did you try creating new record under labels with table name as child table?

Thanks

Hi Shyna,

You can update the field label for a child table using the Labels related list as shown in the below image. Changing the label of the dictionary entry here(field on the child table) will not impact the parent table.

 

Thanks,
