Description
Administrators are unable to set Unique flag for fields in cmdb_ci extended tables like Asset and Server tables.
Steps to Reproduce
Enterprise instances:
- Login as administrator in an Enterprise ITSM instance
- Open any configuration item form for example from Asset or Server CMDB tables
- Right click on a field in and configure the dictionary
- Configure the form layout and add the Unique field
Observe the Unique field is read-only and can not be activated.
Express instances:
- Login as administrator in an Express instance
- Open any configuration item form for example from Asset or Server CMDB tables
- Right click on a field in and configure the dictionary
- Activate the Unique checkbox
- Save the dictionary entry
Observe the Unique value gets overwritten with false again.
Workaround
The Unique constraint is not available on cmdb_ci extended tables in the current releases. This has been identified as a possible future product enhancement.
