An item's or portfolio's parent portfolio is any portfolio that contains the item or portfolio. However, each item or portfolio only has one home portfolio from which the item or portfolio inherits its security settings.
The Item's Parents field can be displayed in the following modes:
- Home Portfolio (default): allows you to select a single portfolio as the home portfolio of the item. This field can appear alone or with the Other Portfolios field.
- Other Portfolios: allows you to select a single portfolio as the home portfolio of the item and also display an editable list of all other parent portfolios that are not the home portfolio.
