Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
The 'Create new record' property is set to false.
The 'Extensible' property controls whether other tables can extend this table, not the menu. Option B is correct because the table property 'Create new record' must be enabled for the table to appear in the 'Create New' menu. Option C is incorrect because the 'Allow Configuration' property affects dictionary attributes, not the new record menu. Option D is incorrect because role-based access uses ACLs, but the menu visibility is controlled by the 'Create new record' property.
