How to enable read access for Global tables

[hari2020]

I am trying to use Task table as extension for other table but failed with below error:

Invalid 'Table' selected on the Module record. The 'Task' table is in application 'Global', but the current application is 'Marketing Events applications'.

Invalid 'Table' selected on the Dictionary Entry record. The 'Task' table is in application 'Global', but the current application is 'Marketing Events applications'. The 'Table' field can only select 'Global' tables with read access enabled.

Can someone guide me towards the right solution?

Thanks in advance,

Hari.

Hi Hari,

It sounds like you are building a scoped application where one of the tables extends task. Good for you, that's an excellent approach!

Correct me if I'm wrong, now you want to go back and make a change to one of the fields inherited from task (such as the default value, or uncheck read-only). What the system is saying is "Hey, that's not a field on your table and changing it could mess up everyone else on the system, so I'm not going to let you."

Depending on the change you are trying to make, you may be able to get away with a Dictionary Override. Can you provide more specifics of what you were trying to do when you got this message?
