Optional Field - Turn off validation

[ugotaccpaced]

Have an Optional Field that was originally setup with the Validate check box ticked. Would now like to change the optional field to not validated but the box is greyed out. Anyone know of a way to gain access to the Validate Checkbox? I tried logging in on the Administrator account but still do not have access.

Edit it in the database CSOPFH table IIRC.

CSOPTFH ... left out the T.

And also in any subledgers, e.g., AROFD, if it's been assigned.

Also, since you've obviously been using this field before, you will need to change it on the data you've already entered in it.

Ex. If you've already entered optional field data for an item, you would have to go to ICITEMO and remove the validate option.

If you don't, you won't be able to edit the field. You will be able to remove it and reenter it, but not edit.
