For the standard 10 apps, SC is the only one to use the CFE_TBL_NotifyByMessage API and manage tables on command.

Research direction
Start by reading the table-notification and command-handling references in fsw/src/sc_app.c and fsw/src/sc_cmds.c, especially the cited lines using CFE_TBL_NotifyByMessage. Compare the current command-driven flow with the requested periodic management of all tables. Done means table management no longer depends on registration for a command and instead runs periodically, consistently with the other standard apps.
