Extend GRC Controls and Risk to the Task Table

In the IT GRC application, grc_risk and grc_control tables are not extended off the task table. This causes an issue for some implementations, as the Approvals Related List and Approvals Reference Field are not available.

How do you extend those tables (grc_risk and grc_control) to the task table? Or what are the steps to add the Approvals Related List and Approvals Reference field to those tables?

You don't have to recreate approval functionality from the task table to get approval functionality. You can extend those tables off task to get Approvals.
