Considerations about editing field settings

You must consider the following before making changes to a field’s configuration:

  • You can edit field settings only from the record type table.

  • You cannot edit a field on the record page or in any other view, outside of the table view.

  • You cannot edit the Field type, after the field is saved.

  • You cannot deselect the Allow negative numbers setting that was previously selected, for a Number, Percentage, or Currency field if there are already negative values stored on the records it is attached to.

  • You can edit the configuration of the following field elements, after you save the field:

    • The Name or the Description of any field
    • The Options of a Single-select or a Multi-select field.
    • The expression of a Formula field.
    WARNING
    When formula expressions change, or options are added or removed from a select-type field, there will be loss of data for the records that already have information stored in the fields whose configuration is modified.
    There is no warning or indication that this data loss could happen when you change the configuration of fields.
    There is no notification to other users that the field configuration has changed.
  • You can edit existing lookup fields from connected records.
