Remove RDD Calculated Fields

Epicor ERP 10
1

I think the answer to this question is it is not possible, but I am asking just in case. Does anyone know if there is a way to delete calculated fields from an RDD?

For example, on the ARForm RDD there are 129 calculated fields on the InvcDtl table. Some of these delete fine as they are localization specific like Mexico or Peru which we don’t do business with, but others we don’t use as well. They don’t need to be deleted, but it would help to reduce clutter. Deleting any of them causes a report error when run saying calculated field x does not exist on table y.

I guess this is more of a curiosity question than anything, but I am curious if anyone has done this or tried to do it.

Delete them or mark them Inactive?

You can, but you’d also need to change the SSRS Report itself, so that it’s not looking for the deleted field.

So the issue here is I am doing it in an outbound EDI report style. so there is no SSRS Report to modify and I am not sure if there is any way to actually see what Epicor is running.
