Can you create application properties for reference fields?

Creating application properties for reference fields is not supported in ServiceNow. Application properties are global settings that can be defined for various aspects of the platform, but reference fields have specific behaviors and constraints that limit their configuration through application properties.

Reference fields allow for the establishment of relationships between records across different tables, and their behavior is largely controlled by their associated table definitions, field types, and individual configurations. As such, while you can set properties for other field types, the framework does not extend this capability to reference fields.

This understanding is essential for ServiceNow developers, as it guides them in designing applications effectively and understanding the limitations imposed by the platform concerning field configurations.
