Configuring the label of a field in a child table changes the label only on that table, not on the base table or the parent table. The base table is the table that contains the common fields for all the extended tables, and the parent table is the table that is directly extended by the child table. The label of a field on the base table or the parent table can be different from the label on the child table.

To see what scripts, reports, and other application artifacts will be in a published application, the best option is to examine the Application Files Related List in the application to be published. This will show all the application files that belong to the application, grouped by file type and scope. You can also filter, sort, or search the list to find specific files.

The following options are not the best ways to see what application artifacts will be in a published application:

Enter the name of the Application in the Global search field. This will perform a global text search on the instance and return any records that match the application name, which may include irrelevant or incomplete results.

Open the list of Update Sets for the instance. This will show all the update sets that have been created or imported on the instance, but not necessarily the ones that belong to the application to be published. Update sets are used to move customizations between instances, not to publish applications to the ServiceNow Store or Share.

Open the artifact records individually to verify the value in the Application field. This will require opening each record that may be part of the application and checking the Application field, which is tedious and error-prone. References: Publish an Application, Application Files

In ServiceNow, when importing data from external sources, the platform utilizes Import Sets to stage the data before transforming it into target tables. The mechanism that defines how data from the Import Set fields map to the fields in an existing ServiceNow table is called a Transform Map.

Transform Map: A Transform Map is a set of field mappings that determine the relationships between fields in an Import Set and fields in an existing ServiceNow table. It allows administrators to define how data should be transformed and inserted into the target table.

Business Service Management Map: This is not related to data import processes. It pertains to visual representations of business services and their dependencies.

Schema Map Relationship Builder: The Schema Map provides a graphical representation of tables and their relationships within the database schema but does not handle data import mappings.

Data Sources: Data Sources define the origin of the data being imported (e.g., files, JDBC connections) but do not determine the field mappings between Import Sets and target tables.

When creating a table in a privately-scoped application, four Access Controls are automatically created for the table. These Access Controls define the permissions for the four basic operations on the table: Create, Delete, Read, and Write. The Create operation allows the user to create new records on the table. The Delete operation allows the user to delete existing records on the table. The Read operation allows the user to view the records on the table. The Write operation allows the user to modify the records on the table. By default, these Access Controls grant access to the admin role and the application scope. You can modify or delete these Access Controls as needed.

The other options are not valid Access Controls for a table. Insert, Query, and Update are not operations, but methods of the GlideRecord class that are used to manipulate records on the server-side. They are not part of the Access Control rules.

When designing and creating a form, you can create sections to organize fields on a form. Sections are containers that group related fields together and provide a label and a description for the group. You can use sections to improve the readability and usability of the form. You can also collapse or expand sections to show or hide the fields within them.

The other options are not valid ways to organize fields on a form. Related lists are not fields, but lists of records that are related to the current record on the form. Tabs are not part of the form, but part of the application menu that allows you to navigate between different modules. Buttons are not fields, but elements that perform actions on the form, such as saving, updating, or deleting the record.

g_form.showFieldMsg("field_name", "Hello World", "error"); Puts "Hello World" in an error message **below the specified field**. g_form.addInfoMessage() or g_form.addErrorMessage() place a blue box message at the top of the screen. Pg 126 of the CAD handbook

The method that prints a message on a blue background to the top of the current form by default is g_form.addInfoMessage(). The g_form object is a global object that provides access to form fields and UI elements on a form. The addInfoMessage() method is a method of the g_form object that displays an informational message next to the form header. The message has a blue background color by default, unless it is overridden by a CSS style. The addInfoMessage() method takes one argument, which is the message text to display.

User-defined non-inherited fields can be deleted from a table in ServiceNow. These are fields that are created by users on a specific table and are not inherited from a parent table. Inherited fields cannot be deleted from a table, as they are defined on a parent table and shared by all child tables. Any field on a table cannot be deleted, as some fields are system-defined and essential for the table functionality. Table records are not deleted when a field is deleted, as the field deletion only affects the table structure and not the data. Reference: Delete fields

ServiceNow supports publishing an application to an application repository, an Update Set, or the ServiceNow Store. These methods allow the application to be installed on other instances or shared with other users.

In ServiceNow, the GlideSystem (gs) object provides several methods for logging messages in server-side scripts. In a privately-scoped application, the following methods are commonly used:

A. gs.log(): This method logs a message to the system log (syslog table). It is a general-purpose logging method that allows developers to record informational messages.

E. gs.info(): This method logs informational messages to the system log. It is functionally similar to gs.log() but is specifically intended for informational messages.

The other options are not standard methods provided by the GlideSystem object:

B. gs.error(): This method does not exist in the GlideSystem API.

C. gs.debug(): This method does not exist in the GlideSystem API.

D. gs.logError(): This method does not exist in the GlideSystem API.

For more detailed information, refer to the official ServiceNow documentation on the GlideSystem API.
