I have a custom record that is the child of another custom record and appears as a sublist on the parent record. I have enabled "Allow child record editing" on the parent record and have enabled "enable inline editing" on the on the child record. Also, on the preferred form for the child record I have checked "enable field editing on lists" and yet the inline edit radio button does not appear on the sublist. What am I missing?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
Based on the conversations, it seems like you have done most of the necessary steps to enable inline editing for a custom record sublist. However, there are a few things you might want to check: 1. Make sure that the field representing the parent record in the child record has the "Record is Parent" option selected. This is crucial for the sublist to be editable. 2. The fields that you want to be editable in the sublist must have the "Show in List" option checked. 3. Ensure that you are in "Edit" mode on the parent record. Inline editing will not work in "View" mode. 4. If the sublist is created by a Saved Search, it will not be editable. The sublist needs to be shown via the definition of the child record. 5. Lastly, make sure that the "Allow Delete" option is checked on the child record. This is sometimes overlooked but is necessary for inline editing. If you have checked all these and still can't see the inline edit option, it might be a small detail that's missing. It's hard to diagnose without seeing your exact setup. You might want to double-check all your settings or share screenshots of your setup with someone who can help you spot what might be missing. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
