    Pourquoi et quand exécuter cette tâche

    The Edit button is available for related lists that represent many-to-many and one-to-many relationships. Defined related lists may not have an Edit button, as related records are added to these lists automatically based on the relationship between the records.

    Procédure

    2. Perform the appropriate action for the list version.
