Removing Add New button from table home page

Question

Is it possible to remove the green "Add New" on a table home page? I don't want to take away the privilege all together, but more so force a user to create new records in that table using "Add New" buttons created within other tables and reports.

Yes.&nbsp; In the role settings&nbsp; for manage Roles, there is a tab for User Interface.&nbsp; You can remove the Add button without taking away Add Permissions.&nbsp; This is a common good practice where you only want the user to add children by launching off a Parent record.------------------------------Mark Shnier (YQC)Quick Base Solution ProviderYour Quick Base Coachhttp://QuickBaseCoach.commark.shnier@gmail.com------------------------------

Hi!
I have this exact setup in my app and it works great ... sometimes.I'm running into issues with dropdown lists - for example:Three tables - Customers, Work Orders, Products- User is viewing a customer record.- User clicks the "Create a new work order request" button which creates the related child record.In the New Work Order form, there is a dropdown list where the user needs to select the (related) product for the work order. In that related products list, they don't have the ability to add a new product if it isn't already listed in the product table.&nbsp;Is there a way around this?The column on the User Interface screen says "Hide Add Button/Links" which is disappointing. Is there a way to hide the button yet allow the user to create a related child record from the dropdown list?------------------------------Karen Henke------------------------------
