UI Action Override Field Not Working – What Is Its Purpose?

[prasathvima]

Hi Community,

I have a question about the purpose of the Override field in UI Actions.

I created a UI Action on a parent table and another UI Action on a child table using the same Action Name, but with different scripts/actions. The child table executes its own UI Action even when the Override field is not selected.

Because of this, I'm confused about the purpose of the Override field. If the child table's UI Action already replaces the parent behavior when the Action Name is the same, what additional functionality does the Override field provide?

Can someone explain the difference between:

• Same Action Name without Override

• Same Action Name with Override

and provide a practical example where the Override field is actually required?

Thanks in advance.

Thank you for your response.
I already reviewed these references and tested the Overrides field, but the parent UI Action was still not hidden in my case.
