Hi all,

How to hide unused/duplicate fields from the personalize list columns of a table without deactivating the field. what would better approach to hide it.

There are some 30 fields and are not being used by the end users on a table(Business applications) that reported by client.
But somehow i saw still there are some data and scripts involved in it,  so we are not ready to deactivate those field.

ISSUE: The end user is getting confused as there a fields with same column name and the field that are un used. This affect when reporting they are confuse which has the right data.

Hi,

Check for solution from thread where you can remove it from the list view using ACL.

Hi,

here the problem is i have to hide some 30 fields.

should i need to create 30 add to list ACL's

is that the best approach?

@mouli7  Have you tried with READ ACL ? You can solve this requirement by one ACL , littlie scripting required here. 

add_to_list ACL have some limitation, it wont allow you to write script due to this you have to define 30 ACL.

Thanks,

Harsh
