Create a table that extends the Insurance Policy (sn_bom_ins_policy) table in the Insurance claims application. You use this table to hold all the information about insurance policies of a particular type that you sold to your customers. Creating tables helps to ensure that each type of policy
is properly organized and maintained within the system.

## Before you begin

Set the application scope in your instance to Financial Services Operations Core.

Role required: admin

## About this task

Each type of insurance policy requires a table that extends the Insurance Policy (sn_bom_ins_policy) table.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllSystem DefinitionTables.
2. Select New.
3. In the Label field, enter the name of the insurance policy.
4. In the Extends table field, select Insurance Policy.
5. Select Submit.  
   You created a table that inherits all the fields from the Insurance Policy (sn_bom_ins_policy) table.

## What to do next

Set up the roles, establish read-and-write access control lists (ACLs), and then grant access to the table. For more information, see [Create a role to access insurance policy tables](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/EscJWv4b5vWOJYLgunc12g "Create a role to enable an authorized agent to access tables that extend the Insurance Policy (sn_bom_ins_policy) table by using the Insurance claims application. By creating a role, you ensure that only authorized agents can view the policies that are relevant to their roles.").
