Inactivate Custom Defined Fields

To inactivate a CDF has no effect on publish Data Entry Form templates and the CDF is still included in the Column Picker, etc.

1. In the Customisation menu → Data Inventory Manager.



2. In the left pane of the Data Inventory Manager window, select the data category that contains the CDF you would like to inactivate.
3. In the right pane of the Data Inventory Manager window, click the row of the custom defined field you would like to inactivate.
4. Click the button to display the CDF Editor window.
5. The CDF editor looks different depending on data type.
6. Uncheck the Active checkbox and click the Save button.
