System Object Children Worksheets

The object page for different types of objects (e.g., Tables or Schemas) contains a number of tabs which present the results of a system object children worksheet for that particular type of object represented by the tab (e.g., Columns for Tables or Tables for Schemas).

When viewing the object page results, say the Columns tab for a Table, you may designate an existing worksheet that you saved or that was shared with you as your personal default.

In addition, users with the Application Administratorcapability global role assignment may designate system object children worksheets for groups or users, which will be the system default, unless over-ridden, when one the object page for that type of object.

However, it would be awkward to require that one go to each type of object page and tab in order to manage defaults. Thus, you may manage all of your defaults in MANAGE > System Object Children Worksheets.
