This option is displayed in the Related Object Sections within the Section properties of the Layout Editor.
The properties in this section are applicable only on the ServiceMax Go App and have the following toggle buttons:
• Allow Attachments: This toggle button allows you to add attachments.
• Allow Images: This toggle button allows you to add images.
• Enable Online Search: The Enable Online Search toggle button is available only for View SFMs in the Related Child Object Section Properties > Mobile Options section. When enabled, the online search option uses the configured Qualification Criteria to determine the records to search. This allows any desired expressions to be applied to the online search. For example, retrieving records with the status Open, and/or records created in the last_n_days, and so on. This helps the technicians view records for any combination of objects without complex download criteria. By default, this toggle button is disabled.
