HI Venkat,

The fields are suppressed as per the client's need. However, the SD consultant should know whether it is affordable to suppress those fields requested by the client. The client would not be interested in entering data for those fields for which it doesnt make a business sense to him.

For eg) One client might not be interested in customer group so it could be suppressed. However, fields like pricing procedure shouldnt be suppressed.

Reward if helped you.

Hi Venkat,

Generally we supress the fields when we know that those fields are not relavant for use in the project scenario.If we do not supress the fields and user maintains any additional data in those fields then it might affect in furthur processings of documents and causing trobule.

Reward points if useful
