Hello,
We dont have such configuration through which it will get add in all child classes in one go however you can achieve this through background script.
Note: Please test and try below code in your dev instance for other tables first and try for cmdb_ci table.
First you need to create a parent table and 2-3 child tables which extends parent.
We need to get below 3 values so that you can provide it in below code:
field name, position, sys_id of field.
You can get those values by capturing your parent formlayout change in your update set. You will get the values in xml like below.
We need write a background script like below:
var child = new GlideRecord('sys_db_object');
// provide sys id of the parent table
child.addQuery('super_class', 'b2e736174f32130084f7b4a18110c7e7');
child.query();
while(child.next())
{
var childSection = new GlideRecord('sys_ui_section');
childSection.addQuery('name',child.name);
childSection.query();
while(childSection.next())
{
var element = new GlideRecord('sys_ui_element');
element.sys_ui_section = childSection.sys_id;
element.element = 'u_test1_feild'; //field name to be added in layout
element.position = '3'; //whatever position you have in parent
element.sys_id= '4ce6657f4ffa130084f7b4a18110c75e'; //field sys id to be added in layout
var sysid = element.insert();
gs.print('sys id id: ' + sysid);
}
}
Please note that changes will happen for immediate child classes and not for child of child.
We can achieve that as well to do changes in child of child.
Kindly try this first then we will check further if you have that requirement.
