Deactivating a field profile

Inactive field profiles have gray icons instead of colored ones when displayed in the results for the Document profiles object bar:

– inactive

– active

Use this procedure to deactivate a field profile, if it is unlikely to be used.
 

Note: Starting with Entrance 5-6, an important change was made compared with previous versions: Inactive amount fields, which were previously transferred with the value 0.00, now contain a null value like other kinds of inactive fields, such as text fields.
