Full set: 264 questions
Answer options
A: ItemCountry, Number
B: Only ItemName, ItemQty
C: ItemName, ItemQty, and ItemCountry Correct answer
D: Only ItemCountry
Correct Answer:
C. ItemName, ItemQty, and ItemCountry
Explanation

In ServiceNow, a child table created by extending another automatically inherits every column of the parent while also containing any new columns that are defined on the child. Because Exportitem extends Item, it receives ItemName and ItemQty from Item, and additionally holds its own column, ItemCountry. Therefore the set of available columns is ItemName, ItemQty, and ItemCountry.

Why Incorrect

A. Number is not defined on either Item or Exportitem; only System fields are auto-added, not an arbitrary “Number” field.
B. Omits the child’s unique column, ItemCountry, which is always present on the child table.
D. Ignores inherited parent columns; extension always includes all parent fields.
