Change table properties such as the table label or other settings so that you can
make a table extensible or add record numbers by using Table Builder.

## Before you begin

Role required: none  
Note:  
User must have canWrite access to sys_db_object or AES user role and delegated developer permissions. For more information, see [Delegate developers using AES](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/7nGx8ej0_uG1DIiyMPiwOA "Delegated development enables designated users without a system admin role to develop or deploy applications on the ServiceNow AI Platform. This enables administrators and delegated developers to work together to deliver custom applications through App Engine Studio (AES).").

## About this task

By editing table properties, you can relabel your table, make your table extensible,
or add record numbers. You can also set application access settings.

Making a table extensible means that you are enabling new tables to share columns
from your table. For example, if you created an "Office location" column in your
table, you can allow new tables to use the "Office location" column also. For more
information on table extensions, see [Table extension and
classes](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=table-extension-and-classes&version=yokohama&pubname=yokohama-platform-administration&ft:locale=en-US).

Adding record numbers means that a tracking number is created automatically for each
new table entry. For example, a new entry to the Travel Requests table would get a
record number like TRV1234567. You can use this number to find table records more
easily.

Application access settings determine whether script objects from other applications
can access the table in your application. You can give these script objects access
to read, create, update, or
delete records on your table. Alternatively, you can disable access
to your table from other applications. For more information on the application
access controls, see [Table design and runtime
settings](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/Ixs5e4DqedHQtjNMWfX44w "The Application access fields determine whether a table is accessible to other applications during design-time or run-time operations.").
