field label on form showing name also in brackets

[Sam Ogden]

Hi all,

We are revamping our Change form with the addition of some new fields, however the OOB 'Description' field is now show the field label as 'Description(description)'.

We do not have another field called Description and I can't work out how to stop this from appearing like this?

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Sam

Did you create the a new field with description name? - if Yes system want to differentiate the fields by adding the column name in the bracket.

Please make this answer is correct if i answer your questions

Thanks

Hi Chandu,

For a short while we have 2 fields with the same label, but these had different field names.

We have since re-labelled the custom field, but the brackets didn't disappear at this point.

I've found the table 'sys_documentation' which seems to hold that label that is being used.  Is there any harm now amending the record in here to remove the brackets?

Thanks

Sam

Hi

I had the same problem and solved it following way:

In sys_dictionary, there is an additional label entry, which was created automatically on duplicate label.

Just change/remove it, and the problem is fixed. If the label is not duplicated within this table, it won't appear anymore.
