ServiceNow Exam CAD Topic 5 Question 98 Discussion

Table Extension in ServiceNow:

Extending a table in ServiceNow means creating a child table based on a parent table. The child table inherits the fields, configurations, and functionality of the parent table.

What is Inherited:

Fields: All fields from the parent table are available in the child table.

Functionality: The child table benefits from any business logic or workflows defined for the parent table.

Access Controls: The child table respects the Access Control rules defined for the parent table unless explicitly overridden.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

Option B: This is incorrect because the new table does inherit fields from the parent table.

Option C: This is incorrect because you do not need to script or configure behaviors from scratch; they are inherited.

Option D: This is incorrect because Access Controls are not ignored; they still apply and can be extended or modified for the child table.
