The value inheritance of Parent(parent).

[Kentaro Numata]

Hello, It'as Ken.

I have a question about the value inheritance of Parent(parent).
Setting Parent(parent) inherits values ​​such as Status(install_status).
Is it possible to add an inherited column? I want to add Location(location) and custom column.

Parent inheritance seems to be handled by Business Rules "Inherit information from parent".

Thanks,

Ken.

I have attached a screenshot for reference.
"Status" and "Assigned to" are Null before setting Parent.



However, when I set the Parent and update the record, it inherits the "Status" and "Assigned to" values.
I want to implement this with Location and custom columns.

Hi @Kentaro Numata 

Yes you can add the columns, Do you want to inherit only when parent field is linked? If yes then you can simply add below logic in the Inherit information from parent BR

current.location = current.parent.location;

You can modify in  script include but note that the same method is called from another BR too (Trickle information down to components)
