How does the Advanced Applies to field work on the related list form?

[r_t_bryan]

I am trying to apply the related list to more than one table, but there is a lack of documentation explaining how the advanced 'applies to' field works. Can someone explain to me how to apply the related list to more than one table please. I understand that answer = <table name> allows you to apply the related list to one table, but how do you add more than one table?

Thanks in advance,

Robert

Hi Robert,

I am assuming you are talking about Defined Related List. See below:

Creating Defined Related Lists - ServiceNow Wiki

Look under Relationships in your dev instance and you should be able to find plenty of examples

Yes, but the only thing the wiki states about the applies to field is 'Type a script to specify the table on which the related list appears. This field is only visible with the Advanced checkbox selected.'. What I would like to know is what script I would use to apply the related list to more than one table e.g. problem, incident, change etc.

I have managed to make them accessible to the change and problem forms, by setting the applies to field as 'Global'.
