Use

In this Customizing activity, you can specify whether the system hides the entity types for a selected data model at the following places:

  • In change requests
  • When uploading and downloading

When entity types are hidden, the system also hides the related fields in the following areas:

  • On selection screens
  • During mass change
  • In a search results list
  • In data cleansing

The settings of the fields affect the following applications:

  • Collective and Hierarchy Processing of an Entity (Web Dynpro application USMD_ENTITY)

    If you select the No Selection checkbox, you cannot delimit the search for entities of the entity type by the fields that are selected.

  • Mass Change (Web Dynpro application USMD_MASS_CHANGE)
    • If you select the No Selection checkbox, you cannot delimit the search for entities by the fields that are selected.
    • If you select the No Mass Change checkbox, then the selected fields cannot be changed using a mass change.
  • Search for Entities (Web Dynpro application USMD_ENTITY_SEARCH)
    • If you select the No Selection checkbox, you cannot delimit the search for entities by the fields that are selected.
    • If you select the No Results List checkbox, then the fields do not appear in the results list for the search.
  • Data Cleansing

    If you select the No Data Cleansing checkbox for an attribute, the system does not perform data cleansing and the field is not displayed on the Merge UI.
