Hi Shruthi,

• Open the form containing the related list to update. In the example, the Incident form is used.
• Right-click the header bar of the related list and select Personalize > List Control. In the example, the Task SLAs related list is used.
• On the List Control form, the Omit new button and Omit edit button option are selected by default. Clear these two options.
• When the Omit new button and Omit edit button options are cleared, the New roles and Edit roles options appear.
• [Optional] Select specific roles that can use the buttons. Click the lock icon next to New roles or Edit roles and move roles from the Available column to the Selected column.
• Click Update.
• On the parent form, check that the New and Edit buttons appear in the related list.

Hi Srtuhi,

Check if user has access to add the relationship between the parent and related table records. Generally edit button will be visible for many to many relationships.

Hi Sruthi,

I tried to reproduce the same steps on my Personal Developer Instance and was able to successfully enable the 'Edit' button.
