delete column on custom table?

[patk1000]

I discovered a "feature" of ServiceNow where I am unable to delete a column ON A CUSTOM TABLE that is not prefixed with 'u_'. For example, there is no button to delete a table named 'user_global_snat'.

I need to delete it rather than simply marking as inactive and ignoring it.

I tried mucking with the live JS in developer console to enable the 'X' button, but the delete operation didn't actually work.

Hey Pat,

If you to delete the table then you have to click on the collection record.

In case of column you have to click on each individual record to delete it.

Hi Chi,

Can you share screenshot of the column you are trying to delete. So if you go to the dictionary of the customized column you should see "Delete column" button on header of the screen.

i have tried many methods but not work:

the option to delete is grey even when i have selected one :

no option to delete in the header dictionary entry of the column:

i am sure i am in correct scope.
