5.3.2 Field options
In this part, you have access to the default field structure:

- You can choose to activate or deactivate fields using the switch green button on the right (name and owner cannot be disabled). Note that these fields cannot be completely removed; only hidden by deactivate.
- Fields can be reordered by drag and drop.
- By going to Admin 🡪 Fields Order, all the disabled fields will appear to be Grey with the mention "Disabled Field" next to their name, contrary to enabled ones which are colored in white (as shown in the screenshot below):

- You can edit the field name by clicking on the text.
- Fields can be mandatory. Select the Mandatory box to activate the feature.
- If you want to see the values of the field in the summary line, select the Summary Line box.

The summary line for record 2 is highlighted in red.
- Field types and database names are also visible here.
- For some text fields, the orange icon allows you to activate an input mask.
