Deactivating a Type of Entity

You can't delete an entity type but you can deactivate it.

This will let you keep the entity type for reporting purposes.

Users won't be able to select the entity type but they will be able to report on it.

 

If you try to deactivate a type of attribute that is used in one or more file import definitions, you'll get a message that shows which definition is preventing the deactivation.

This enables you to identify the file import definition and remove the type of attribute type from that definition.
